THE HEART OF CS AUTOMATISME
More than engineering. A conviction.
At CS Automatisme, we see industrial engineering as more than a technical activity. We see it as a way to develop knowledge, strengthen local capabilities and contribute to the growth of Southern Africa's industries and societies.
Our Pan-African outlook reflects a belief in African cooperation, regional expertise and the ability of Southern African engineers, technicians and companies to participate fully in designing, building and mastering the technologies that shape their future.
This conviction informs the culture we seek to build: technically ambitious, socially responsible, open to cooperation and deeply committed to the long-term progress of regional industry.
OUR GUIDING PRINCIPLE
Africa must not only use the technologies of tomorrow. Southern Africa's industries must also take part in designing, developing and mastering them.
Unity through cooperation
Building connections across Southern African countries, expertise and industrial value chains.
Knowledge as a foundation
Valuing education, engineering competence, research and practical innovation.
Technology as a capability
Developing the skills and systems needed to create, operate and improve industrial technologies locally.
REGIONAL INDUSTRY
Serving the industries that build the region.
Southern Africa's economies rely on strong industrial foundations. We work alongside the companies that extract, transform, power and produce, helping them modernise operations and build lasting capability close to home.
Energy & Utilities
SCADA, control systems and supervision for power generation and distribution.
Water & Environment
Process control for treatment, pumping and distribution infrastructure.
Agri-food & Processing
Efficient, traceable production lines for food, beverage and agro-processing.
Manufacturing & Logistics
Robotics, MES and special machines to modernise regional production.
A CONTINENTAL LEGACY
Inspired by those who believed in Africa.
Across Southern Africa, generations of thinkers, leaders and builders have defended dignity, unity, knowledge and the right of African societies to shape their own future.
Their lives remind us that the development of a region requires ideas, institutions, responsibility and collective effort.

SOUTHERN AFRICA · AFRICA · THE WORLD
Regional roots. Continental vision.
CS Automatisme PAA is headquartered in Botswana, with a regional outlook focused on Southern Africa. We see the region as a connected industrial space, where mining, energy, water, agri-food and manufacturing value chains cross borders and depend on shared skills and infrastructure.
We believe that stronger industrial ecosystems emerge when expertise, suppliers and opportunity can circulate across borders, and when more of the value created by regional industry stays in the region. Regional cooperation builds the foundations for wider continental progress.
Our ambition is to contribute to this progress through engineering and technology, working with regional businesses, institutions and partners who share a commitment to Southern Africa's industrial development.
