We also offer these capabilities for station information and security systems.
We are currently working on a number of contracts, some examples of which include the S&T Framework for NW&C, SP&C Framework in Scotland, TransPennine Route upgrade (TRue), and Train Control System Framework (TCSF) for the provision of ETCS.

As a key member of the team, you will ensure engineering excellence is achieved throughout the life cycle of the project, from pre-contract tender input through design and implementation phases to handover to the client.
