MedAustron is a synchrotron-based ion therapy and research facility in Austria, that has been successfully treating cancer patients since 2016. MedAustron acts as a manufacturer of its own accelerator with a strong commitment to continuous development and improvement for our customers, our users and our patients. The control system plays an integral role in this endeavour. The presented project focuses on replacing the well-established WinCC OA SCADA system, enforcing separation of concerns mainly using .NET and web technologies, along with many upgrades of features and concepts where stakeholders had identified opportunities for improvement during our years of experience with the former control system setup for commissioning, operation and maintenance, as well as improving the user experience. Leveraging our newly developed control system API, we are currently working on an add-on called "Commissioning Worker". The concept foresees the functionality for users to create Python scripts, upload them to the Commissioning Worker, and execute them on demand or on a scheduled basis, making it easy and highly time-efficient to execute tasks and integrate with already established Python frameworks for analysis and optimization. This contribution outlines the key changes and provides examples of how the user experience has been improved.
