Refurbishment of existing command and control vehicle
South Wales Fire and Rescue Service owned and operated a 10 year old Mercedes command and control vehicle that failed to meet the needs of the authority under the current threat.
AES were tasked with delivering a feasibility study and business case for the refurbishment of the vehicle and subsequently the contract to uplift the vehicle.
The contract involved completely stripping out the vehicle, subdividing it into three sections using pre-fabricated bulkheads with sliding communication windows and refitting the vehicle in its entirety.
The new design provided by AES included:
New communication, data and document processes recognising current major incident command methodology in a custom designed pleasant working environment working around the restrictions placed on the team by the existing platform
The AES design team provided all technical and training Publications
Training is to be provided by the AES design and Service Support Team
