Safety Case Development

rcm2 staff has been involved in the setting up of various rail project safety management systems, using adaptations of the system described in the "Yellow Book". rcm2 staff have worked setting up and managing Hazard Logs for a number of rail projects (West Coast Route Modernisation, Two Major Re-signalling Projects, ...). Our staff have many years' experience generating and providing input into safety cases for the UK rail industry. We have contributed to the safety case of a novel hybrid automotive engine management system.

Systems Engineering and Requirements Management

Systems Engineering is about processes to ensure that stakeholders' requirements for a complex engineering system is fully met. It is about a "holistic view" and the glue that ensures multi-disciplinary activities are integrated to enable the realisation of successful systems.
rcm2 has experience of full lifecycle development of safety critical systems to CENELEC, IEC, ITSEC and 00-55/00-56 standards. We have been involved in the safety, performance and RAM (Reliability, Availability and Maintainability) activities on various railway and other transportation projects including the production of safety cases.

We have over twelve years of expertise in Dynamic Object Oriented Requirements System (DOORS) database and associated DXL programming. We have supported two large projects that used DOORS to manage traceability of industry Standards.

Risk Assessment, Safety and Reliability Engineering

rcm2 has extensive experience in modelling systems and their components for the purposes of assurance of safety, reliability and other performance capabilities. We are able to use any one or a combination of the following techniques: Fault Tree Analysis, Event Tree Analysis, Cause-Consequence Modelling, Failure Modes Effects Criticality Analysis (FMECA), Reliability Prediction using MIL-HBK-217, Reliability Block Diagrams (RBD) and Markov Analysis.

Intelligent Asset Management

rcm2 provides reliability engineering, modelling and project management support to aid the adoption of best practice whole-life asset management. Our strength lie in the following areas:

Requirements development using DOORS (see a comparison of IT tools)
Functional performance and safety modelling
Web-based asset management solutions
Reliability-Centred Maintenance and Predictive Maintenance using Remote Condition Monitoring
Whole-life asset safety management
