who we work with and how we innovate
Technical Safety
Functional Safety Engineering
We specialise in delivery of functional safety studies and engineering to provide full compliance with EN/IEC 61508 and EN/IEC 61511 safety standards. Our specialist services include:
• SIL determination (LOPA, FTA, ALARP, etc.)
• IL Verification (RBD, FMEA, etc.)
Process & Technical Safety Engineering
• Identification of Safety Critical Elements and development of Performance Standards
• COMAH reports and Safety Cases
• Process Hazard Assessments (HAZOP, HAZID, etc.)
• QRA (consequence modelling, blast analysis, IRC, IRPA, PLL, F-N curve, etc.)
• Safety Studies (FRA, EERA, ESSA, toxic gas impact assessment, etc.)
• API 521 (venting and depressurisation) engineering and compliance review
• Fire & Gas detection/protection (3D mapping, performance criteria, zoning, etc.)

OT CYBER SECURITY
Due to the changing political scene and increased level of automation and connectivity in industrial infrastructure, there is an ever-growing need to cyber secure Industrial Control Systems (ICS). Importantly, Operational Technology (OT) Cyber Security must adopt a whole-lifecycle approach.
Our approach:
Originating from a heavily regulated safety domain, our engineering culture has always been focused on providing high integrity, mission critical solutions. We combine our specialist Cyber Security skillset with both ICS engineering and risk management capabilities to ensure that any Cyber Security solution is fit for purpose.
Our risk-based approach to Cyber Security in the industrial control & automation space has been developed with HSE, NISD and international standards in mind. By offering a lifecycle approach with stakeholder engagement at board, management and operational levels; we are able to identify, design and deliver the most suitable OT Cyber Security solution, tailored to meet the needs of each client.

Engineering
Engineering
We offer complex and niche engineering solutions individually or integrated within a larger EPC contract. Our areas of expertise lie within every stage of the projects’ lifecycle such as conceptual studies, FEED, detailed design & commissioning.
Project Management
We provide project, pre-construction, construction and commissioning management services in accordance with the UK CDM 2015 regulations. We have experience of acting as the Principal Designer under the CDM 2015 regulations which included design, design management and design assurance. Practising proven management procedures, we are able to incorporate design changes at an early stage and avoid impacts to cost and schedule.

Operational Technology
Interface Management
Interface management is the key to providing a successful automation project and this applies to management of relationships between engineering companies, systems integrators and vendors.
Automation and Integration
As part of our service we provide independent multivendor system integration. Our capabilities include:
• Process control systems (PCS / DCS)
• Protection / shutdown systems (ESD / ICSS)
• Pipeline control systems
• Fire and gas systems
• Telemetry, remote monitoring and SCADA systems
• Simulation and operator training (OTS)
