Making your production data work as hard as your people. Routeco Know How.
Organisations generate more data than ever. The challenge isn’t collecting it – it’s turning it into decisions. Routeco’s software portfolio is built around four things that make a difference for businesses: sustainability reporting, compliance management, maintenance, and demonstrating clear financial value.
Our experts don't start with a product catalogue. They start with your problem.
Software that makes a difference - watch now
From our Industry Futures series, Routeco’s software solutions architect James Eames walks through how Routeco's software portfolio tackles four challenges that matter most to industrial businesses: sustainability, maintenance, compliance, and demonstrating clear financial value.
From monitoring energy usage across the plant floor to predicting asset failures before they happen, see how the right software - and the right expertise - turns data into decisions that drive real change.
Analytics and data management
FactoryTalk® Historian Site Edition (SE)
FactoryTalk Historian Site Edition captures real-time plant floor data and puts it to work - helping you spot inefficiencies, track KPIs, and make better decisions about process, time, and materials. It connects to virtually any control system or HMI , integrates seamlessly with FactoryTalk and Integrated Architecture, and is significantly faster to deploy than traditional historian systems. Auto Configuration reduces setup time and lowers total cost of ownership, so you see value sooner.
FactoryTalk® DataMosaix™
FactoryTalk DataMosaix is a cloud-based Industrial DataOps platform that gives your entire organisation - from plant floor engineers to enterprise analysts - controlled, contextualised access to industrial data across every site. Most businesses aren't short of data. They're short of data that's usable. DataMosaix solves this by creating a central, contextualised source of truth with automated pipelines, so domain experts can find, understand, and act on complex industrial data without needing a data science team to interpret it first. The result is a more agile operation - one where productivity improvements, quality gains, and sustainability targets are driven by insight, not instinct.
Design
Studio 5000®
Studio 5000® brings every element of your control system design into a single, standardised framework - reducing complexity, cutting commissioning time, and giving your team a consistent experience across every project.
Built for rapid design, collaboration, and component re-use, the intuitive interface means less time navigating tools and more time engineering solutions. Virtual design capabilities let you validate before you build, reducing risk and costly on-site rework.
The outcome is straightforward: faster time to market, lower project risk, and a genuine competitive edge.
FactoryTalk® Logix Echo
FactoryTalk Logix Echo gives you a fully emulated controller environment - no physical hardware required. ControlLogix®, GuardLogix®, CompactLogix® and Compact GuardLogix® controllers are all available at the click of a button, letting you validate, test and optimise control logic from day one of the design process.
Move freely between design and run modes without reconfiguration, cutting the iteration time that typically eats into project budgets. And with the ability to drive data into digital twin models and system-level test beds, you can stress-test your entire solution before a single piece of hardware is installed.
Less rework on site. Faster time to commission. Lower project risk.
FactoryTalk® Design Studio™
FactoryTalk® Design Studio™ is a cloud-based automation design environment that brings modern development tools, multi-user collaboration and AI-assisted engineering together in one platform.
At its core is Design Studio Copilot - a Generative AI tool that understands natural language and translates it into PLC code. Whether you're an experienced controls engineer or expanding a team with varying skillsets, Copilot puts expert-level knowledge within reach and removes the bottlenecks that slow down design cycles.
Built for scale, Design Studio supports multiple controllers with full system-wide context, enables parallel collaboration across teams, and helps you move from concept to deployed project faster than traditional development environments allow.
Emulate3D™
Emulate3D™ digital twin software lets you create accurate 3D simulations of your automated systems, giving engineers and plant teams a virtual space to design, test and commission without the risk and cost of physical rework.
Control issues can be identified and resolved early in the project lifecycle, before on-site deployment. Faster-than-realtime simulation helps optimise layouts and configurations, while virtual commissioning reduces the likelihood of last-minute changes when implementation begins. The same environment can also be used for operator training on new systems, removing the need to use live equipment.
HMI
FactoryTalk® View Machine Edition (ME)
FactoryTalk View Machine Edition (ME) delivers a powerful, flexible operator interface for machine-level control - whether you're running a standalone HMI or a complex distributed system across multiple devices.
Designed on a common development infrastructure, View ME scales easily as project requirements change, without starting from scratch. Pair it with PanelView™ Plus 7, PanelView Plus 6, MobileView™ or a range of industrial PCs - the hardware choice is yours.
Full-featured from the outset, View ME includes superior graphics, runtime user management and language switching, giving operators a clear, intuitive interface and giving engineers a platform that's straightforward to configure and maintain.
From design through to daily operations, it delivers value at every stage.
FactoryTalk® Optix™
FactoryTalk Optix is a modern, cloud-native platform that goes well beyond traditional HMI. Combining advanced visualisation, edge computing, IIoT connectivity and data management in a single environment, Optix is built for the way industrial teams work today.
SaaS-enabled workflows mean your team can collaborate from anywhere - with built-in change tracking and versioning that keeps a clear record of every update, who made it and when. Deploy to operator panels, industrial PCs or virtual machines running Windows or Linux, and scale your solution as your digital transformation ambitions grow.
Whether you're looking to improve process visibility, tighten operational efficiency or unlock the value of your industrial data, Optix brings it all together in one accessible, future-ready tool.
Industrial Communications
FactoryTalk® Linx Gateway
In a modern industrial environment, software from multiple sources needs to talk to controllers and automation hardware reliably and securely. FactoryTalk® Linx Gateway makes that happen - acting as a high-performance translator between your automation devices and the software that depends on their data. Third-party software
and FactoryTalk applications can operate independently or side by side, with Linx Gateway handling secure, efficient data acquisition across the system.
Maintenance
Fiix
Fiix is a cloud-based CMMS that brings your assets, work orders and parts together in a single system.
It's used by over 3,000 companies to manage maintenance more consistently, reduce unplanned downtime and get a clearer picture of where time and money are actually going.
The AI-powered platform helps you move from reactive to planned maintenance - without overhauling the way your team works.
FactoryTalk® AssetCentre
FactoryTalk AssetCentre provides a single system for securing, versioning, tracking and reporting on automation assets across your facility. Changes are logged automatically, so you always have an accurate, up-to-date record of your asset configurations without relying on manual processes.
When unplanned downtime occurs, the audit trail helps you identify what changed and when - reducing the time it takes to diagnose and resolve the issue. It also supports compliance by maintaining documented records of asset history across the site.
It works largely in the background, with minimal additional workload for your team.
Manufacturing Execution System
