CASE STUDY · EMERGENCY SERVICES

Scottish Fire and Rescue Service: Commanding the Room

The Scottish Fire and Rescue Service needed its national Incident Command Centre rebuilt around the assessor’s workflow — consistent audio across every assessment pod, automated camera tracking, one-touch recording and national remote-assessor streaming, built to scale without a system overhaul.

Read the case study

Beamforming ceiling microphones, dual-lens PTZ cameras and hardware-based recording across every pod, the Incident Command Room and the Plenary observation space — EIS’s largest single SFRS engagement to date, and the reference point for a wider multi-station rollout now under discussion.

CASE STUDY · EMERGENCY SERVICES

Scottish Fire and Rescue Service: Building a Centre of Excellence

A broken training room at Perth — a disconnected control system, a damaged screen, no interactive capability — rebuilt in three and a half days on site with zero scheduled courses lost, and phased so nothing installed now stands in the way of the full Teams Room to come.

Read the case study

New projection, interactive smartboards, simple push-button control and a full audio refresh in Phase 1, with hybrid conferencing and full remote/BYOM capability already scoped for Phases 2 and 3.

Questions we’re asked most

Answered plainly

Do you deliver projects across an entire fire and rescue service estate?

Yes β€” from a single station to a service-wide rollout across control rooms, stations and training centres, procured under one contract.

How reliable are your control room video wall installations?

Control room installations are specified with reliability and duty cycle for 24/7 operational use as the primary design requirement, not an afterthought.

Can you support existing AV another supplier installed?

In most cases yes, following a survey to confirm compatibility before quoting a support contract.

Does Martyn’s Law apply to fire and rescue premises?

Fire and rescue stations and other public-facing premises can fall within scope of the Terrorism (Protection of Premises) Act 2025 (Martyn’s Law) depending on occupancy. Our Martyn’s Law Communication Readiness page has a free two-minute scorecard to check where you stand.
