Why MPA?

We are digital transformation consultants, engineers, and technicians that build from a operations centric position. Plant system and Operators. All the technology in the world is useless if the people using it don’t benefit and they can’t maintain it. We have been doing this for decades but it went by many other names. Modernization, Recontrol, Automation, Green.
