Transition, integration and progress since acquiring NAPCON
In one year since acquiring the NAPCON digital solutions portfolio from Neste, Lummus has made real and measurable progress in integrating NAPCON’s people, technology and capabilities into its broader offering.
“The addition of NAPCON’s capabilities with Lummus’ other digital solutions has really strengthened our digital offering for customers,” said Prakash Ramdoss, Managing Director, Lummus Digital. “We now have the ability to deliver end-to-end digitalization that support customers across the full lifecycle of their assets, spanning design, advanced process control, optimization, information management and operator training.”
Evolving Lummus’ digital strategy
Since completing the acquisition in 2025, Lummus has focused on integrating proven digital technologies with its deep process engineering expertise to support customers across the full lifecycle of industrial assets. Today, that integration is largely complete. Customers can now access a more comprehensive, end‑to‑end digital offering that spans design, advanced process control, optimization, information management, operator training and more.
In addition, NAPCON recently released new updates featuring platform improvements, security enhancements and continued product development. The release further strengthens NAPCON’s capabilities, which in turn helps complete Lummus’ end‑to‑end digital offering across the full lifecycle of industrial assets.
More efficient, sustainable and safer customer operations
The NAPCON offering now combines advanced process control and optimization with a proprietary operator training simulator that closely replicates real plant behavior, supporting both operational excellence and workforce readiness.
Together, these capabilities complement Lummus’ broader digital and process technology portfolio, enabling customers to move beyond point solutions toward more connected digital strategies. From early project phases through commissioning and ongoing operations, Lummus’ digital solutions are designed to support continuous improvement, resilience and long‑term performance.
As Lummus continues to invest in digitalization and innovation, the integration of NAPCON represents an important step forward. Lummus has strengthened its ability to deliver practical, value‑driven digital solutions that help customers meet today’s operational challenges and prepare for the future.
