Small Team. Full Ownership.
Gardner Controls handles automation projects from focused robotic work cell integrations to coordinated
multi-system programs. But what sets us apart isn’t just what we build — it’s how we show up.
We operate as an extension of your plant team, not a vendor checking boxes from the outside. That means direct
access to the people doing the work, scope that stays defined, and communication that doesn’t disappear
between milestones.
Our goal is simple: strong technical results and a project experience you’d actually repeat.
Controls-First DNA. Robotics Built On Top.
Most integrators start with robots and bolt on controls. We started the other way around — 15 years in controls
engineering, PLC development, and commissioning before expanding into robotic integration.
That foundation matters. It means our automation systems are built to be maintained, troubleshot, and expanded
by your team long after we leave. We work within automotive, Tier 1, industrial, and food production environments
where downtime isn’t theoretical — it’s money.
Each project follows a milestone-driven pathway designed to align scope, coordinate stakeholders, and maintain
predictable progress from initial concept through system commissioning.
Four Phases.
No Surprises.
Every engagement follows the same proven pathway — designed to reduce uncertainty and give you visibility into
where things stand at every stage.

Our Strengths
Controls
PLC programming, panel build, and system integration designed for reliability, maintainability, and long-term scalability. The result: systems your maintenance team can troubleshoot and expand without calling us back.
Robotics
Robotic work cell design and advanced programming built for real manufacturing conditions — not demo-floor scenarios. Every cell is engineered with future expansion already accounted for.
Projects
Coordinated project leadership from concept through installation and production ramp. One point of contact. Defined milestones. No scope drift.
