Before you replace it, let Meray evaluate it.
An independent engineering evaluation of your equipment, controls, and lifecycle risk — designed to answer one question: what should you do with this asset?
Assessment first. Recommendation second.
You probably don’t need another repair quote. You need a decision.
- Controls are becoming obsolete
- Replacement parts are increasingly difficult to source
- The OEM is recommending machine replacement
- Management is considering a new machine
- Recurring controls issues are increasing risk
- The PLC / HMI platform is unsupported
- The machine is mechanically productive but technologically outdated
- You need to understand modernization cost before approving replacement capital
Before committing to a retrofit or a replacement, understand the asset you already own.
We don’t inspect one PLC. We evaluate the asset as a system.
Machine & Process
- Machine condition
- Integration requirements
- Modernization feasibility
- Expected implementation risks
Controls & Automation
- Existing controls architecture
- PLC
- HMI
- I/O
- Industrial networks
Motion, Electrical & Safety
- VFDs
- Servo systems
- Electrical system
- Safety controls
- Sensors / instrumentation
Documentation & Lifecycle
- Available PLC / HMI programs
- Electrical drawings / documentation
- Component obsolescence
- Replacement-part availability
Implementation & Economics
- Estimated downtime
- Budgetary modernization range
A deliberate engineering evaluation.
- Understand
- Inspect
- Evaluate
- Classify
- Compare options
- Recommend
You leave with a decision — not another sales pitch.
The Equipment Modernization Report documents what we found and what we recommend. It’s built to help you decide what to do next — whether or not Meray performs a modernization project afterward.

Component-level findings (example)
Overall recommendation
Keep · Modernize · Sell · Replace
Illustrative structure only. Bracketed fields and findings are examples, not a real project.
Two levels of decision — kept distinct.
Component level
Each component gets its own finding: Keep · Repair · Replace · Modernize.
Asset level
The overall equipment recommendation is one of four:
The assessment has value even if you never modernize with Meray.
KEEP
Continue operating with documented risks and recommendations.
MODERNIZE
Move into Meray modernization engineering and project planning.
SELL
Consider equipment disposition or resale.
REPLACE
Use the findings to support the replacement capital decision.
Scoped to the decision you’re making.
No two machines carry the same controls architecture, documentation, obsolescence, or production constraints. Meray scopes each assessment around the equipment and the level of engineering required, then provides a clear quote before work begins.
No subscription. No open-ended engagement. Clear scope before work begins.
Before you approve the replacement, understand what you already own.
Give Meray the equipment details, photos, controls information, and documentation you have. If you don’t know everything, that’s okay — that’s part of what we’re here to evaluate.
You don’t need all the technical details to get started.
