Control Command Solutions Services

We offer a wide and extensive range of services to customers, everything from Train Control System Design and Intergration, through to Cyber Security.

Command Control Solutions provides a service that offers the customer a professional service that will give you the solutions you need, they also work closely with you to ensure that the end result you get is the result you wanted.

Say Hello to TIM

Until now Building Information Modelling (BIM) has primarily been used for the design and construction of buildings. Control Command Solution utilises the techniques of BIM to provide what we call Transportation Information Modelling, TIM. Using state of the art software along with our innovative data capture tools, Control Command Solutions can provide a full design service from survey to fully detailed 3D computer modelling.

Control Command Solutions brings together expertise from the construction industry and railway systems engineering to provide a truly integrated design solution which aligns with the governments Digital Built Britain strategic plan. Using our in house capabilities Control Command Solutions can provide complete BIM services for railway projects of all sizes.

Control Command Solutions uses advanced computer systems to generate 3D models of infrastructure and hold large amounts of information about its design, operation and current condition. At the planning stage it enables designers, owners and users to work together to produce the best possible designs and to test them in the computer before they are built. In construction it enables engineers, contractors and suppliers to integrate complex components cutting out waste and reducing the risk of errors.

In operation it provides customers with real-time information about available services and maintainers with accurate assessments of the condition of assets. TIM from Control Command Solutions, intrinsically captures the necessary cyber security elements required at the design stage to ensure full compliance with EN50159.

The Key Benefits for T.I.M

  • Reduction of risks from greater visibility into design and construction interfaces and activity. Improved safety through increased construction awareness from easy review of complex details or processes on site.
  • Reduced errors from using a trusted "single source of truth" approach to data management, for example ensuring only the most appropriate version of models, drawings and documentation is used.
  • Improved collaboration through linked data sets and integrated 3D models that create a "virtual" infrastructure before the physical infrastructure is constructed, allowing design and construction refinement.
  • Reduced information loss between project phases, ensuring we capture and hand over full asset information into the Operations and Maintenance phases
  • Improved project delivery leveraging technology advances including data interoperability and mobility

Cyber Security Service

Here at Control Command Solutions we believe for a system to be safe it must be secure. The railway industry is becoming increasingly reliant on interconnected digital systems to run its operation. Cyber technology is complex and fast evolving, and cyber-attacks are becoming increasingly automated and sophisticated. Control Command Solutions provides specialist cyber security services combining cyber security expertise from IT and Ministry of Defence with Railway Systems expertise, we offer solutions to all elements of the cyber security threat.

  • Protect: Installing specific protection measures to prevent and discourage cyber attacks against the process control systems.
  • Detect: Establishing mechanisms for rapidly identifying actual or suspected cyber attacks.
  • Respond: Undertaking appropriate action in response to confirmed security breech. Packages can be tailored to suit individual needs and include: System design evaluation and risk assessments - giving system designers' full compliance with EN 50159
  • Operational System Evaluation - from full site surveys and asset information control command solutions can evaluate the train control systems vulnerability levels and provide recommendations.
  • Operational system attack identification. - Allowing infrastructure managers to identify any current threat or potential weaknesses in security.
  • Contingency Planning for the Infrastructure managers.
  • Production of cyber security risk management systems.
  • Exercise programme development - Enabling the processes and procedures associated with a cyber-attack to be tested in real time and continuous improvements to be made.

Train Control System Design and Integration

Utilising in house specialists in train control systems and operations control command solutions provides system architecture designs capturing ERTMS, C-DAS, TMS, FTN all of which are incorporated into our Transportation Information Modelling system incorporating high degrees of cyber security at the design phase. Utilising a systems engineering approach to ensure all system requirements are fully captured and integrated into the overall rail system.
