MEGA R&D Vision and Culture
MEGA Industrial Control Systems aims to increase the power of industrial control systems with the latest technologies by placing R&D at the center of its corporate strategy. The company vision is to establish a 'zero error' and 'full quality' understanding in industrial processes. This approach also forms the basis of the customer satisfaction-oriented service philosophy. MEGA Industry has made it one of its most important goals to produce domestic and national solutions that contribute to our country's technological independence while increasing reliability and performance in critical areas such as the energy sector. Thus, the company continues its activities with a determination to lead Türkiye's industrial digital transformation.
As an R&D culture, the company has made innovation and quality indispensable parts of its corporate culture. FlashTech® and Flashware® technologies, which emerged thanks to R&D investments made over the years, are concrete examples of this vision. The FlashTech® terminal automation system developed by the company provides high accuracy and safety in fuel filling operations, while the Flashware® microprocessor-based control device contributes to digital transformation by offering remote monitoring and control with GPRS/GPS communication support. MEGA Industry has succeeded in developing domestic systems as alternatives to foreign-origin products with such unique technological solutions and has created an innovation-oriented corporate culture in the sector.
R&D Competencies and Qualified R&D Projects
MEGA Industry continues its activities as an R&D Center approved by the T.R. Ministry of Industry and Technology and places R&D at the focus of its corporate strategy. The majority of the full-time expert personnel working in the center hold postgraduate degrees, supporting the company's innovative capacity with high-level technical knowledge. Working with an interdisciplinary approach, the R&D team integrates different areas of expertise such as electronics, software, mechanical and process engineering to develop high value-added industrial automation products. In this way, MEGA Industry brings software and hardware together to offer solutions that penetrate every stage of process control.
The technical competencies of the R&D Center cover a wide range of filling, measurement and control technologies in the oil and gas sector. The company specializes in critical automation areas such as fuel loading/unloading systems for road tankers, railway wagons and ships, fuel transfer via pipeline, injection and blending processes, smart meter calibration systems and tank overflow prevention. Innovative solutions in these areas are developed thanks to MEGA Industry's deep R&D accumulation in both software and hardware and are successfully applied in the field.
The company has successfully completed many R&D projects to date and is currently carrying out 6 projects simultaneously. Among these projects, we are carrying out original product studies developed with the company's own resources, as well as completed projects supported by KOSGEB and an R&D project for TUBITAK 1501 Industrial R&D programs. New technological capabilities gained as a result of each project reflect directly as added value to MEGA Industry's product portfolio. Indeed, the solutions developed by the company have reached a scope that can serve 97% of the sector's needs. This wide sphere of influence is an indicator of MEGA Industry's R&D competencies and moves the company to the position of a leading R&D center nationwide in the sector.
Human Resources and Collaborations
MEGA Industry sees its human resources as its most valuable capital and supports the continuous development of its employees. Within the framework of the continuous learning culture created within the company, the individual development goals of the employees are planned in line with the company goals. Certification programs, postgraduate education opportunities and professional development opportunities aimed at increasing the knowledge and skills of the technical team are encouraged by the company. Thanks to this proactive training and development approach, investment in qualified human resources constantly feeds the firm's innovation capacity and ensures its long-term success.
The company attaches great importance to university-industry collaborations. By carrying out joint R&D projects with academic institutions, it both brings innovation to the sector and contributes to the training of young engineers. Internships programs applied within MEGA Industry and the inclusion of newly graduated engineers in R&D projects give the company's human resources a fresh perspective while supporting the applied side of engineering education in our country. In this way, the company enables young talents to gain experience in real projects and contributes to qualified employment. The spread of R&D culture among employees and working in coordination with other units has also created a strong culture of cooperation at MEGA Industry. As a result, university collaborations and continuous training-oriented human resources policy keep the ecosystem that increases the company's innovative power and produces domestic solutions alive.

R&D Based Growth
R&D-oriented innovation is the driving force of MEGA Industry's rapid and sustainable growth. Indeed, the annual company turnover, which was ~52.4 million TL in 2021, reached ~372.9 million TL in 2023. This performance means an impressive growth of approximately 7 times in just two years. Thanks to its R&D-based products and services, the company has carried the success it achieved domestically to global markets. Regular exports are made to various countries, primarily Uzbekistan, Iraq, and Greece; leading the use of Turkish-origin advanced technologies in the international arena by working in cooperation with local stakeholders in projects. These export achievements have enabled MEGA Industry to transform into a solution provider that can compete on a global scale.
MEGA Industry is turning to new technological areas to carry this momentum it has achieved into the future. It is no coincidence that Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence applications have a priority place on the R&D agenda. The company plans to expand its product range by initiating R&D projects not only in its current sector but also in new areas at the intersection of energy and industrial technologies. For example, adjacent areas such as renewable energy storage technologies and smart grid management are among the potential study topics evaluated in the long term. With these new generation projects based on IoT and digitalization, MEGA Industry is determined to play a leading role in the innovation ecosystem in the coming years and to provide contributions that will carry our country to the top ranks in the high technology league.
