Software Development

Scalable, reliable, and secure software for websites, industrial automation, data gathering, and critical infrastructure.

Wapiti Consulting develops custom software for industrial automation, data acquisition, remote monitoring, and web-based applications. We work closely with owners, operators, and contractors to deliver solutions that are reliable, maintainable, and built for real-world operation.

We specialize in supporting water, wastewater, energy, and industrial facilities where uptime, data integrity, and operational visibility are critical. Our team brings hands-on experience across Linux and Windows environments, networking, industrial protocols, and modern web technologies.

Our Software Capabilities

Industrial Data Acquisition

Custom data gathering systems that collect, store, and visualize process data from field devices, PLCs, and sensors. We build historians and monitoring dashboards tailored to the specific needs of each facility.

SCADA & Remote Monitoring

Custom SCADA solutions and remote monitoring applications that give operators real-time visibility into their systems. We design for reliability and simplicity so operators can focus on running their facilities.

MQTT & Industrial Communications

Lightweight, reliable MQTT-based communication systems for connecting field devices, RTUs, and control systems over cellular and local networks. Ideal for distributed infrastructure like pump stations and water systems.

Linux System Administration

Deployment, configuration, and maintenance of Linux-based systems for industrial and edge computing applications. We handle network configuration, service management, scheduled tasks, and system hardening for headless and embedded deployments.

Networking & Secure Remote Access

Design and configuration of secure remote access solutions using OpenVPN and Tailscale for industrial sites and distributed infrastructure. We ensure operators and engineers can safely access remote systems without exposing them to the public internet.

Web Development

Custom websites and web applications built with Django and Python, as well as WordPress solutions for clients who need a managed platform. From project portals to operator-facing dashboards, we build for usability and long-term maintainability.

Developed a data gathering system and supporting web application for the Willow Springs 50kW renewable energy project, providing operators and stakeholders with performance data and operational insights.

Willow Springs 200kW: Data Acquisition & Web Development

Extended our Willow Springs work to the 200kW expansion project, delivering data acquisition and web development services to support monitoring and reporting for the larger installation.

Our Development Approach

We build software the way we build everything else at Wapiti, with an emphasis on reliability, clarity, and long-term maintainability. Industrial software that goes down is not just inconvenient; it can mean loss of data, loss of visibility, or loss of control. We design with that in mind.

Because our team also handles electrical engineering and control panel design, our software integrates naturally with PLCs, field instrumentation, and control systems. There are no hand-off gaps between disciplines.

The result is software that fits how your team actually operates: easy to understand, easy to maintain, and built to keep running.
