Construction sites are demanding environments. Dust, noise, changing landscapes and multiple user groups are challenges that must be met to ensure safe and effective communications. Operators in this sector require flexible and reliable radio systems that provide coverage across the entire site and grow with the project to meet budgetary requirements.
Systems design is an ongoing requirement for building sites as the topography develops. Simoco systems architects and field engineering teams work closely with construction operators to design solutions that take site development into account and minimise the impact on communications. Expertise in installing vertical crane mobiles and confined space engineering means that construction operators benefit from full radio coverage.
Simoco meets the needs of the construction sector with a range of ruggedised products that remain effective in the field over long periods of rough handling in harsh conditions. As a manufacturer, Simoco can customise product as well as provide refurbishment services to extend the life of radio equipment and also offers equipment rental programmes.
The IP nature of digital radio means that upgrades and maintenance can be performed remotely with multiple user groups being catered for. It also allows for the integration of other radio and communications systems to meet the needs of multi-tenant environments and achieve unified communications across a wide range of technology. Data services such as the location monitoring of workers and assets, mobile field tools and information exchange between site and office can be integrated onto the radio network, harnessing value from the radio infrastructure and increasing efficiency.
Simoco customers in the construction sector include:
The healthcare sector is under pressure to reform, show efficiencies and embrace new technologies. Converged communications and application development can enhance services and processes and improve ways of working to transform service user experiences.
Simoco radio solutions meet the need to improve workforce communications through digital voice communications that cater for multiple user groups and offer functionality such as emergency call prioritisation, voice recording and integration with other platforms such as paging, Wi-Fi and emergency services communications.
Health sector environments are varied, covering large areas and multiple buildings. Designing systems architecture to meet the challenges involved in establishing radio communications in locations such as basements and maintenance areas requires expertise. Simoco’s site survey team inspects individual environments, designing infrastructure that takes account of the location as well as the possible impact of RF on healthcare equipment. With unrivalled experience in confined space engineering, Simoco is able to engineer comprehensive radio coverage in complex spaces.
Simoco’s digital solutions support the healthcare sector with advanced functionality such as GPS to track workers or assets, remote monitoring and M2M communications. Dispatchers can raise and track the status of jobs through Simoco’s task management systems, controlling workflow and maximising resources.
