B-Scada (or Beyond–Scada) is a company based in Crystal River, Florida. According to the company website, B-Scada's product offerings include cloud-based and on-premise Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) software platforms, an Internet of Things (IoT)) software platform, and wireless sensing hardware. B-Scada says it is one of the first companies to use data modeling in SCADA systems to create virtual representations of real world physical assets.

Data Modeling
Data modeling is a technique for defining business requirements for a database.
B-Scada uses these data models as the basis of end users toolkits. These end users toolkits allow representations of assets with immediate interactions. One advantage of this concept is “templating” where a data model is created for a type of object instead of for a specific object. Conventional Human Machine Interface (HMI) and SCADA products bind data from programmable logic controllers (PLCs) or other data sources directly to the graphics. Data modeling in HMI/SCADA allows the virtualized model of assets to be bound to the HMI/SCADA screens. The PLC or OPC Server memory addresses plus any additional associated information can then be referenced at run time, allowing one generic data model template to be used for many different specific assets.
History
B-Scada was founded as Mobiform Software in 2003 by Ron DeSerranno, former Senior Software Engineer of Rockwell Software, Inc./Dynapro, Inc., where he served as the Development Lead and Architect for its industrial automation product, RSView.
Mr. Deserranno is considered an authority on XML based graphics technology, serving as a Microsoft Certified Trainer and co-authoring a book on Microsoft’s WPF technology.
Beyond SCADA
In October 2012, Mobiform Software announced it had changed its name to B-Scada (Beyond SCADA). It continued trading under the stock ticker symbol MOBS until announcing in October 2014 its new stock ticker symbol, SCDA.
