Smart gas and water metering systems with global manufacturing footprint
SIT manufactures heating, ventilation, and smart metering equipment across seven countries, relying on a tightly integrated SAP + Siemens PLC stack for operations and quality control. The tech adoption pattern—no tools replacing, no new platforms adopting—and the current project list (IT/OT integration, security policy, planning tools, MRP control) reveal a company in defensive modernization mode: strengthening internal IT infrastructure, closing compliance gaps (NIS2, ISO 27001), and binding together fragmented production systems rather than chasing new capabilities.
SIT is a public manufacturing company founded in 1953 and headquartered in Padua, Italy. The company operates three business units: heating and ventilation systems for gas appliances, smart gas meters, and smart water meters. With approximately 2,349 employees, SIT maintains production and R&D sites in Italy (Padua, Rovigo, Macerata), the Netherlands, Romania, Mexico, and China, alongside commercial branches in Europe, the Americas, Asia, and Oceania. The organization runs on SAP (warehouse management, quality, logistics) and Siemens automation infrastructure, with active hiring concentrated in operations, engineering, and manufacturing roles across Italy and Tunisia.
SIT's core stack is SAP (WM, QM, Logistics, Basis, ABAP), Siemens PLC, LabVIEW, MATLAB, Rockwell FactoryTalk, and OPC UA for industrial automation and quality management.
Production and R&D in Italy (Padua, Rovigo, Macerata), Netherlands (Hoogeveen), Romania (Brasov), Mexico (Monterrey), and China (Suzhou). Commercial branches span Europe, North America, South America, Asia, and Oceania.
