- 10 skills to score
- 1–10 scale on every skill
- 5 starting levels
The 10 Automation Design & Systems Integration skills you can score
These are the default Automation Design & Systems Integration skills in SkillScorer. Each one is scored from 1 to 10 for every technician, and you can edit, remove or add skills at any time.
Requirements Gathering and Functional Specifications
Gathers requirements from operators and engineers and writes functional specifications that define what the system will do.
Electrical Design and Panel Layout
Designs and builds panels to standard.
Control Architecture and Equipment Selection
Designs control architecture and selects PLCs, drives, networks and devices that fit the application and budget.
Software Development and Standards
Writes structured, tested control software that follows standards and is easy to maintain.
Factory Acceptance and Site Acceptance Testing
Plans and runs factory and site acceptance tests that prove the system meets the specification.
Project Scheduling and Cost Control
Plans tasks and controls costs so projects finish on time and on budget.
Working with Mechanical and Process Engineers
Coordinates with mechanical and process engineers so control design matches the physical plant.
Cybersecurity for Operational Technology
Designs networks and access controls that protect control systems from cyber threats.
Handover, Training and Documentation
Hands over systems with training, drawings, software backups and manuals.
Client Communication and Change Management
Explains progress and manages changes with clients without losing control of scope.
Levels included with Automation Design & Systems Integration
Automation Design & Systems Integration starts with 5 levels, which SkillScorer calls “Grade” for industrial automation & robotics, so technicians can be grouped and compared fairly. Rename, reorder or replace them at any time.
- Graduate
- Designer
- Senior Engineer
- Project Engineer

How Automation Design & Systems Integration works in SkillScorer
Score
Each technician in a team is scored on the Automation Design & Systems Integration skills in the Skills Matrix: tap a cell, type a score, and it saves itself.
Compare
Rank technicians, compare two side by side, or compare your teams against each other to see exactly where the strengths and gaps are.
Track
Scores are kept year after year, so you can see who is improving and which Automation Design & Systems Integration skills need attention. Reports also follow each lead engineer's team.
Automation Design & Systems Integration scorecard: common questions
What skills does the Automation Design & Systems Integration scorecard include?
SkillScorer's Automation Design & Systems Integration scorecard covers 10 skills: Requirements Gathering and Functional Specifications, Electrical Design and Panel Layout, Control Architecture and Equipment Selection, Software Development and Standards, Factory Acceptance and Site Acceptance Testing, Project Scheduling and Cost Control, Working with Mechanical and Process Engineers, Cybersecurity for Operational Technology, Handover, Training and Documentation and Client Communication and Change Management. Each one comes with a written description of what it measures, and you can edit, rename, remove or add skills to suit your organisation.
How are technicians scored in Automation Design & Systems Integration?
Every technician is scored from 1 to 10 on each skill (1 = Poor, 5 = Average, 10 = Elite), one team and year at a time. Scores autosave in the Skills Matrix, and the 18 built-in reports turn them into rankings, radar charts, skill gaps and year-on-year trends.
Which levels come with Automation Design & Systems Integration?
Automation Design & Systems Integration starts with these levels (called “Grade” in the app): Graduate, Designer, Senior Engineer, Project Engineer and Integration Manager. They are just a starting point, so you can rename, reorder or replace them.
Can I change the Automation Design & Systems Integration skills and wording?
Yes. The skills, levels and labels are all editable per organisation. In industrial automation & robotics the app talks about technicians, teams and lead engineers, and you can change any of those words too.
