Do we have to deploy everything at once?Clara BESSON2026-08-31T12:12:30+02:00

Do we have to deploy everything at once?

No. A site can start with a single area, the one causing problems today, then add others later. Extending happens within the same software, with no interfaces to rebuild and no change of tool.

Does this software replace our ERP?Clara BESSON2026-08-31T12:14:37+02:00

Does this software replace our ERP?

No, it complements it. The ERP handles orders, stock and invoicing. The software captures what actually happens on site and passes it up through a connector, without re-keying.

Will it work with our existing equipment?Clara BESSON2026-08-31T12:16:29+02:00

Will it work with our existing equipment?

Yes. It connects to PLCs, weighbridges, barriers, display boards and SCADA systems already installed, including from different manufacturers. IBITEK handles that integration as a systems integrator, which is its original trade.

Can our teams build their own reports?Clara BESSON2026-08-31T12:23:23+02:00

Can our teams build their own reports?

Yes. The software includes a report designer and a dashboard designer. Site teams create their own outputs without development work, after training delivered at commissioning.

How is user access managed?Clara BESSON2026-08-31T12:26:22+02:00

How is user access managed?

Each user is tied to a service and a role that determines which screens they can reach. Actions are logged and queries tracked by user, so it’s possible to trace who viewed or changed what.

Is IBITEK a software vendor or a systems integrator?Clara BESSON2026-08-31T14:01:45+02:00

Is IBITEK a software vendor or a systems integrator?

Both. IBITEK develops its own software and carries out the installation: electrical and automation engineering, equipment connection, testing and commissioning. That combination is rare in this market, where vendors subcontract the field work.

Does IBITEK also handle electrical and automation works?Clara BESSON2026-08-31T14:05:17+02:00

Does IBITEK also handle electrical and automation works?

Yes. IBITEK develops its own software and carries out the installation: electrical and automation engineering, works, testing, commissioning. One contractor runs the project, from the switchboard to the dashboard.
