In this work of thesis, a real problem is faced concerning the need for maintenance on an automation plant for water transport. The plant in question already has a SCADA system developed on Ignition, so the same program was used to develop software for preventive maintenance of the plant. One of the main problems of the plant is related to ordinary maintenance such as the cleaning of the areas and the lubrication of the components. Although it may seem trivial, these tasks are of fundamental importance and carrying them out periodically would result in better functioning of the system and greater safety.
