SeQent and Wunderlich-Malec announce strategic alliance
Toronto, ONT – SeQent and Wunderlich-Malec Engineering, Inc., announced the signing of a certified system integrator agreement to jointly deliver integrated and scalable alarm and communication solutions for industrial customers across North America and beyond.
As part of the alliance, Wunderlich-Malec will offer SeQent’s real-time alarm notification and plant-floor communication platform as part of its control system integration and OT network solutions, enabling manufacturers, utilities, and critical infrastructure operators to reduce unplanned downtime, improve safety, and increase visibility across complex operations.
“Our customers are under enormous pressure to keep operations running safely and efficiently while navigating increasingly complex automation environments,” said Sheret Ross, Co-CEO, SeQent. “By aligning with Wunderlich-Malec, we’re making it easier for plants to deploy proven alarm infrastructure alongside world-class engineering and integration services, so critical events are surfaced faster, routed to the right people immediately, and acted on before they become production problems.”
SeQent’s platform connects directly to leading SCADA, MES, PLC, and IIoT systems and delivers real-time alerts to the devices plant personnel already carry including two-way radios, smartphones, tablets, Andon boards, pagers, and PA systems ensuring critical alarms are never missed.
Wunderlich-Malec brings deep expertise in control system integration, OT network design, and IT/OT convergence, designing and delivering cyber-secure industrial networks, control systems, and smart plant-floor devices that enable high-performance operations.
“This alliance is a natural extension of the work we already do modernizing control systems and OT infrastructure for our clients,” said Jeremy Persells, Senior Account Manager, Wunderlich-Malec Engineering. “By standardizing on SeQent’s alarm notification platform, we can give our customers a robust, scalable way to manage alarms across sites and systems, while our teams ensure the underlying control and network architecture is secure, reliable, and ready to grow with their operations.”
