Clark & Soma provides focused BAS/DDC support for owners, operators, and contractors who need clearer controls scope, cleaner coordination, better documentation, and practical support across existing systems, equipment additions, retrofits, and new construction.
Clark is the family name; Soma stands for the family behind it. The firm was built to stay focused, hands-on, and directly accountable.
How we work
Modernize
Bring dated graphics and obsolete controllers up to current standards, on the hardware you already own wherever possible.
Optimize
Keep buildings running efficiently with tuned sequences, energy work, monitoring, and proactive maintenance.
Integrate
Connect multi-vendor equipment, devices, and meters into a maintainable operational layer, with integration paths chosen to fit existing conditions.
Operating standards
- Practical modernization
- We reuse and upgrade what works before recommending replacement, so you avoid an unnecessary rip and replace.
- Owner-ready documentation
- Every engagement leaves point lists, sequences, and closeout records the owner actually owns.
- Secure controls support
- Remote access and support are scoped and secured before anything connects.
- Phased improvement
- Work is staged by risk and budget so the building keeps running throughout.
Based in Indianapolis. Serving Central and southern Indiana, with select multi-site and project-based work reviewed by scope.
Senior controls work, start to finish.
Senior-led means fewer handoffs and a direct line to the person doing the work, from the first conversation through delivery.
Scope is set by the engineer who will build it, and the record here is the résumé: the years, the platforms, the services, the industries.

Start with the questions we would ask on-site.
Tell us what system you have, what is being added or improved, and what the building needs to do better.
- 01
Platform
Tell us what you’re running — Metasys, Niagara, Automated Logic, Distech, or mixed.
- 02
Priorities
Flag what actually hurts: dated graphics, trapped data, energy cost, remote access.
- 03
Focus
We map it to the few scopes that move the needle — a read on your building, not a pitch.
A Clearer Project Record From Day One
Each engagement is organized around clear status, key documents, findings, scope notes, and deliverables. When remote visibility is part of the scope, live system data can be included in the client portal.
