Network Design
In recognition that many of our customers require manpower and knowledge support when engaged in complex communication situations, GRC provide in-theatre assessments and network design. This includes a full network critical issues analysis both in terms of the radio spectrum and geographical dead spots and constraints.
GRC use complex software to analyse both the electromagnetic spectrum and geography to enable a network to be designed that has a low wattage but high penetration in densely populated locations. This is particularly critical in today’s growing and often unmanageable environment of Counter Improvised Explosive Device inhibitors. Where no single equipment solution provides the required capability (which is normal) GRC Ltd will assist the customer in ensuring that systems are appropriately integrated and configured.
System Integration & Vehicle Installations
Where no single solution meets the complex demanding requirements of today's customer, GRC can assist in the design and integration of both equipment and capabilities. With the rising cost of new integrated platforms, GRC is able to match the customer's needs with more cost effective solutions using their existing products.
GRC draws together the skills of engineers in a wide range of disciplines. These include programming, electronic hardware, printed circuit board layouts and construction,enclosure design, network design and installation, regulatory compliance testing and product evaluation.
GRC provides covert, overt and discrete vehicle, man-pack and marine communications integration, including cameras, processors, commercial communication systems and sensors. These are modular mobile fits, scalable to budget and capability requirement.
Largely integrating and installing CoTS components which are most appropriate for the task, vehicles are designed with appropriate engineering standards and procedures by a team of highly competent, specialist military experienced engineers. GRC also provide bespoke vehicle power management systems, which assures the integrity of the vehicle systems whilst providing resilient power and graceful degradation to communications components. This power solution has proven so valuable that it has recently been adapted for man-pack use in support of operationally critical tasks.
GRC can provide adapted power and ancillaries for manpack use of tactical radio systems, in order to allow the level of power amplification and endurance normally associated with vehicle installations.
GRC can provide certified VCA (Vehicle Certification Agency) vehicle installations.

Technical Surveillance Counter Measures (TSCM) - Bug-sweeping
Bug-sweeping is the the systematic electronic, physical and visual examination of a designated area by trained and qualified persons, utilising appropriate equipment and techniques in an effort to locate transmitting or surreptitious listening devices, security hazards or other means in which classified, sensitive or proprietary information could be intercepted or lost.
GRC has a small team of qualified and highly experienced operators who offer the following kinds of sweep services;
Physical search using a variety of tools including non linear junction detector, bore-scopes and electronic devices the target area is thoroughly examined to ascertain the presence of eavesdropping equipment.
Electronic search using the most advanced equipment and software available. The target area is electronically "sniffed" to detect the presence of surreptitious listening devices.
Telephone / Mains search conducted using specialist equipment designed to check telephone equipments and mains cables for the presence of parasite devices, voice operated devices and a host of other clandestine devices.
Wireless Access Point (WAP) emissions will be 'sniffed' to locate unauthorised (rogue) and insecurely configured WAP's.
