The phase where programmes lose their schedule.
Design overruns are visible and get managed. Integration overruns arrive late, when there is no float left, and they are usually the consequence of decisions taken much earlier.

SCOPE
What we do.
- Test strategy and planning
- Environments, simulators and benches
- Automated testing and coverage analysis
- Hardware-in-the-loop
- Integration, commissioning and site support
- Independent V&V as a standalone service
THE TOOLS
And what we bring to it.
On signalling programmes the test bench can consume the same files the design produced. SmartViewer needs no additional configuration to show the plant, and the automated test scripts that simulate on-board units and HMI already exist for ERTMS work.
That is why the estimate is lower.
