The Totally Integrated Automation Portal, referred to as TIA Portal in the following, offers all
the functions you need for implementing your automation task assembled in a single, cross-
software platform.
The TIA Portal is the first shared working environment for integrated engineering with the
various SIMATIC systems made available within a single framework. The TIA Portal
therefore also enables reliable, convenient cross-system collaboration for the first time.
All required software packages, from hardware configuration and programming to
visualization of the process are integrated in a comprehensive engineering framework.
