What We Do

Misson-critical communication systems

We make complex mobile communications systems that work

What We Do

We design, manufacture and supply products and solutions for mobile data, job despatch, vehicle location, data collection, and vehicle telemetry systems for the Emergency Services, Public Transport Public Utility sectors and military users.

Our customers include Police, Fire, Ambulance, state and municipal transportation systems, railways, gas, electricity, water companies and organisers of the Olympic Games.

We provide vehicle devices, mobile software applications, central communications gateways which are built in to complete solutions for resource location, fleet management and job dispatch for business-critical and mission critical users and applications.

In the UK and Ireland half of all ambulances have our systems installed.

Designed for wireless

Our products solutions are “designed for wireless” from the ground up – this means that they deliver robust and reliable communications even in marginal radio coverage and continue to operate where other solutions fail.

We have over 20 years’ experience in making things work where other solutions can’t – we do this by using a range of techniques that include:

  • Careful and considered product and solution design
  • Data compression and encryption
  • Highly optimised, robust and reliable data transmission protocols
  • Focusing on transmitting only the information that’s required

Accurate resource location when you need it

Our Automatic Resource Location (ARL), Automatic Vehicle Location (AVL) and Automatic Person Location (APL) systems deliver precision location updates in a timely fashion that inform control and dispatchers where resources are – when they need to know.

Our location systems use highly optimised and intelligent, rules based reporting to deliver world-class location information “just in time” without occupying unnecessary bandwidth or overloading Command and Control systems.

When you need pin-point accuracy and reliable resource tracking with:

High availability solutions

We implement systems for mission critical and business-critical users that cannot afford to fail which is why we make systems that work 24/7/365 with zero down-time.

Our high resilience and high availability solutions are designed to deliver five-nines (99.999%) availability or better – we often achieve 100% availability and measure system uptime in hundreds of days or years.

System integration

We connect your mobile work-force to your back office systems and ensure that all the parts work together, seamlessly.

We integrate new systems, existing and legacy systems to maximise business benefit from IT and reduce duplication and remove redundancy and unnecessary duplication.
