SCADA & SMS

We have designed, specified and delivered SCADA and station management systems for a wide range of different applications on surface and underground rail infrastructure.

We work with railway operators to develop control engineering concepts by understanding the working environment and the safety factors required. We produce robust functional specifications. Our engineers develop the engineering, programming and integration of the system.

We source product from the market ensuring we are free to use the best solution for the application. We use open software platforms that can be modified by any suitably trained personnel.

We build optimised maintenance strategies into all our systems. We have a large facility in Cheshunt where we carry out factory acceptance testing and carry out full system configuration tests using simulated field devices. This means that the system is only delivered to site following full acceptance testing and customer witnessing. See Case Studies >
