Do you only work in New Zealand?

No.

Our engineers work worldwide.

We regularly support projects throughout Oceania, Europe, USA, the Middle East and Asia, either remotely or on-site.

Can you help with existing machines?

Absolutely.

Many of our projects involve improving existing equipment rather than replacing it.

We can:

• Modernise obsolete PLCs
• Upgrade HMIs
• Improve production speed
• Increase reliability
• Reduce downtime
• Add new functionality

Can you build electrical control panels?

Yes.

We design and manufacture professional switchboards that comply with New Zealand standards and can also support international projects.

Do you work with OEM machine builders?

Yes.

Many OEMs use us as an extension of their own engineering department for:

• PLC programming
• Commissioning
• FAT
• SAT
• Customer training
• Global service support

How do you keep project costs under control?

We believe in transparency.

Before starting, we discuss project scope, estimated effort and the most cost-effective approach.

Whenever possible, we solve issues remotely, reuse proven software architectures and plan work carefully to minimise engineering hours.

Are your services expensive?

We strive to offer highly competitive rates while delivering exceptional value.

Our focus is not simply on providing engineering hours, but on delivering efficient, reliable solutions that minimise downtime and keep your project moving.

With decades of combined international experience across a wide range of industries and automation platforms, our engineers are able to diagnose issues quickly, make informed decisions and complete projects efficiently. This often reduces the overall project cost, even when compared to lower hourly rates.

We believe the best measure of value is the total cost of a successful project, not just the hourly rate.

Why do customers continue to work with DAT?

Because we build relationships, not just projects. Many of our clients return because they know they can rely on us for honest advice, responsive support and engineers who understand their systems. We aim to become a trusted long-term engineering partner rather than just another supplier.

Can your services scale with our business?

Absolutely.

Every business has different engineering requirements, and those requirements often change over time. That’s why our services are designed to be flexible and scalable.

Whether you need a single engineer for a few hours, additional support during peak production, project-based engineering, or an ongoing partnership, we can tailor our level of involvement to suit your operational needs.

As your business grows, we can increase the level of support. If demand reduces, we can scale back accordingly, giving you access to experienced engineering expertise without the long-term commitment and overhead of permanent staffing.

Our goal is to provide the right level of support, exactly when you need it.
