Hello,
There are several strategies to build HMI with LabVIEW. The simpliest way to have valve/pump on the front panel is to customise the indicator (replace bitmap of lamp with bitmap of valve).
AFAIK, there is SCADA-branch from ni - "Vision". So, have a look at the product.

Hi Auggie,
In most SCADA/HMI application, I always recommend using the LabVIEW Datalogging, Supervisory and Control Add-on.
This will give you industrial type icons for your front panel, easy to implement unlimited tags (Shared-Variable), enhance security, datalogging to an optimized database, Alarms and Events monitoring and more... Basically, features that are for the SCADA/HMI experts.
