I've got all the rockwell software I should need. I can borrow Siemens if I go that route. Most controllers will easily cover the io. I'm heavy on the temp inputs.
If the funds are there, I'd also recommend going with the FTView SE...

If the funds are there use Ignition. FTView anything is garbage in comparision. You can download Ignition for free and use in demo for as long as you want, you get two hours before the demo ends, but you can reset this as many times as you want.
I'm very curious about Ignition. I've seen it mentioned multiple times by several SIs, but never saw it in a production environment. To be fair, you can also use Rockwell stuff for 7 days as a demo and reset the VM at the end of that, so it's not really a selling point for me.
Let's start at the HMI end - how about a Panasonic toughbook as a server for remote alarming/monitoring (maybe control down the line), with local runtime client obviously. Is that sensible?
