sorry - totally disagree !
I am a process enginer; I deal mainly with DCS but also with SCADA
Plant Automation System just like Plant Automation Team is management speak for DCS and DCS engineers; at worst it is used to describe disparate PLC's which may or may not be integrated into a SCADA system or even talk to a DCS
The subject is the same as Industrial Control Systems
[edit]The subject of this article is the same as Industrial Control Systems. I propose that the two articles be merged. My Gussie 08:47, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
I agree, the ICS page certainly has more information and better organization than the PAS page. It is good idea to merge both and also give PAS prominence in heading so the page pulls up in search when users are looking for process automation using instruments and networks instead of business process automation.

Ideas to improve the PAS page
[edit]How about defining PAS in terms of the Purdue Model, i.e. PAS represents levels 0,1 and 2. PAS technology is the convergence of DCS, PLC, SCADA, drive control, motion control and associated networks/fieldbuses. PAS provides the capabilities to interface to MES and ERP systems.

This is blatantly plagiarized from http://www.abb.com/cawp/db0003db002698/b3913fe3a1296b7bc12571f10040f47f.aspx —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.6.217.119 (talk) 08:24, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
I searched for process automation hoping to find a page that has PAS besides business process automation, but landed directly on business process automation page. It will help the community if searching process automation gives similar prominence of PAS page in the search result and doesn’t automatically go to the BPA page.
