TTG Increases R&D Investment Prior to Major Technology Launch

 

 

Global communications specialist TTG strengthens investment in its UK-based R&D

 

 

 

22 JULY 2011 –  Team Telecom Group (TTG) is increasing its investment in R&D as it gears up to launch new digital mobile radio technology through the second half of the year.

 

The company, which underwent a £32.8m management buy out 15 months ago, is set to launch a major new platform on which all of their future technology will sit, including Digital Mobile Radio (DMR) Tier 2 and Tier 3, and P25 mobile and terminal devices, together with systems infrastructure.

 

The latest investment is designed to strengthen the R&D work already underway in the group’s Derby headquarters, with the full suite of digital products scheduled for launch over the next couple of years.

 

Mike Norfield, CEO of TTG, says: “Since the MBO we’ve stabilised our business operations and completed our first acquisition, and this latest investment in R&D is the next stage of our growth plans.  We already have a global reputation for delivering cutting edge communications products and services, and the R&D advancements we’re making will replace the old analogue products, placing us at the forefront of the new digital radio technology.”

 

TTG comprises five complementary businesses; radio communications specialists Team Simoco based in Derby and ComGroup in Victoria, Australia, which form Simoco Group; AirRadio in Middlesex; C&C Technology in Hampshire; and Indigo Telecom Group in South Wales.  The group works in markets including the emergency services, transport, oil, gas and public sector, in regions ranging from the Americas and Europe to Africa and the Far East.

 

Mike adds: “We develop and manufacture our products in the UK as well as Australia, allowing us to test, re-test and ensure the quality and flexibility of our technology is second to none.  As a result our businesses are working with a growing number of organisations around the World who demand secure, reliable communications for what can be life saving and mission critical operations.

 

“Our focus now is to build on this success, through investment not only in R&D but also in our people.  We have expanded our teams and strengthened our Apprenticeship programme, which focuses on developing the next generation of radio communications engineers, placing us in a strong position for further global growth.”

 

Launched in 2009, the TTG Apprenticeship programme combines academic qualifications with hands on experience.  The success of the programme has led to its continued expansion, enabling TTG to train and develop new British talent to support its operations.
