PACIV designs and builds automation infrastructure for regulated industries—life sciences, utilities, manufacturing—with a 27-year track record. The company's tech stack spans DeltaV, Allen-Bradley, Siemens PLCs, and OSI PI, reflecting deep legacy systems expertise; they're now adopting ISA-88 standards and Power BI while replacing Business Objects, signaling a shift toward modern data visibility in highly regulated environments. Hiring is engineering-heavy (18 of 22 open roles) and skewed senior, suggesting execution on complex modernization projects rather than greenfield growth.
PACIV provides end-to-end automation solutions—design, build, controls engineering, instrumentation, system integration, and compliance validation—for organizations in life sciences, utilities, and manufacturing. The company operates from four geographic hubs: Indianapolis (headquarters), Aliso Viejo (engineering), Ireland, and Puerto Rico, enabling global delivery of control system design, PLC programming, panel fabrication, and computer system validation (CSV) for GMP-regulated environments. Active project work spans legacy system remediation, Industry 4.0 adoption, automation infrastructure modernization, and pharmaceutical manufacturing expansion. Core pain points center on compliance rigor, legacy system migration, validation documentation, and data integrity in highly regulated settings.
DeltaV, Allen-Bradley (ControlLogix, CompactLogix, Logix 5000), Siemens S7 and PLC, ABB, Schneider Electric, Wonderware, and Ignition. Also integrates OSI PI, Foundation Fieldbus, Profibus, and Batch systems.
