Which Automation Platforms and Partner Programs Does MartinCSI Work With?

Updated

MartinCSI works with a broad set of automation platforms and holds several formal integrator program statuses. According to its site, the listed platforms and programs include Avetta, ABB, Allen Bradley, Automation Direct, Cognex, Inductive Automation, Kepware, Keyence, Mitsubishi Electric, Modicon, Opto 22, Omron, Rockwell Automation, Unitronics, Wonderware, and Yaskawa. If your plant already runs on one of these ecosystems, that overlap is the first thing to check before requesting a quote.

Platforms and Partner Programs Listed by MartinCSI

The site groups these under "Our Platforms & Integrator Programs." Some are named as platforms only, while others carry a specific program status:

Platform / Vendor Program status listed
Rockwell Automation Recognized System Integrator
Allen Bradley Listed (Rockwell/Allen Bradley ecosystem)
Inductive Automation Gold Integrator
Cognex Certified System Integrator
Opto 22 Certified Partner
Mitsubishi Electric Systems Integrator
ABB Listed
Automation Direct Listed
Kepware Partner
Keyence Listed
Modicon Listed
Omron Listed
Unitronics Listed
Wonderware Listed
Yaskawa Listed
Avetta Listed

Where the site names a status (Recognized, Gold, Certified), that reflects a formal relationship with the vendor. Where only the vendor name appears, treat it as a platform the integrator works with rather than a confirmed certification tier.

Why Platform Alignment Matters for Your Plant

The practical question is whether the integrator can work inside the technology you already own. Matching on these dimensions reduces risk:

  • Existing controllers and PLCs — If your line runs Rockwell/Allen Bradley or Mitsubishi Electric hardware, an integrator already recognized in that ecosystem can program, modify, and troubleshoot without a learning curve.
  • SCADA/HMI and software layer — Inductive Automation (Ignition) and Wonderware are common supervisory platforms. A Gold Integrator status with Inductive Automation signals depth in that specific toolset.
  • Vision and robotics — Cognex (vision) and Yaskawa (robotics) are listed separately, so vision inspection and robotic integration are covered as distinct capabilities.
  • Connectivity — Kepware appears as a partner, which is relevant if you need OPC/data connectivity between disparate equipment.

What the Certification Statuses Signal

Vendor integrator programs typically require demonstrated project experience, trained staff, and sometimes audited quality processes. For a manufacturer, that means:

  • A Recognized System Integrator (Rockwell) or Gold Integrator (Inductive Automation) status is a filter you can use to shortlist candidates who have already met a vendor's criteria.
  • Certified statuses (Cognex, Opto 22) indicate the vendor has verified competency on that specific product line.
  • These statuses are not a guarantee of fit for your project — they indicate platform familiarity, not process knowledge of your plant.

How to Use This When Selecting an Integrator

  1. List your installed platforms — controllers, HMI/SCADA, vision, robotics, and network/connectivity software.
  2. Cross-check against the table above — confirm the integrator lists the same vendors and, where it matters, holds the matching program status.
  3. Ask about the specific version or product line — a listed platform does not automatically mean experience with your exact model or firmware generation.
  4. Request a quote with your scope — MartinCSI's site directs prospects to "Request Quote" and emphasizes defining scope upfront, so bring your requirements and current process description to that conversation.

The main takeaway: if your plant standardizes on Rockwell/Allen Bradley, Inductive Automation, Mitsubishi Electric, Cognex, or Yaskawa, MartinCSI's listed platforms and program statuses overlap directly. If you run a platform not on this list, confirm coverage before proceeding.
