ADM Shine Technologies Ltd has four key threads in the areas of ESM/ECM, Advanced
Devices, Special Projects and Aviation Recorders. The key principles of the
R&D are that it adds high value to existing capabilities, tackles capability gaps - if necessary through completely
different approaches (procedural and/or technological), enhances reliability and reduces cost of ownership. We build in trust,
integrity and information assurance at the heart of what we do and deliver. Our labs uses industry leading technologies, our
research prototypes are delivered with them, our products proudly embrace such software and hardware solutions to ensure the
data is safe and the systems integrity is robustly defended.
A tough aim to have set and often the very limits of technology and science can
be encountered. Only those brave enough to risk not only reputation, but also the constraints of man are able to achieve
these often considerable steps and goals. After all look at the steps and achievements of Arthur Stanley Eddington
or perhaps equally determined and noteworthy was those of William Wilberforce and his accomplished friend William Pitt [The
long serving Prime Minister and longest ever serving PM for the founding Conservative Party], he was affectionately otherwise
known as 'Pitt The Younger'.
It is often too easy to live with existing approaches, processes and technologies. It is far too easy to scorn and
castigate those striving to make considerable change and embracing leading edge science in short timescales and
project strictures. If you know precisely how long something will take and eaxctly how to build it - then you have already
built it! Folly is the man that believes precise 'en totale' commerical contracting can be achieved at the leading
edge. It can't as you then only encourage delivery of what has already been built, invented and researched. Defence of
the Realm and the requirements of UK's National Security needs to tap into the very best minds and
capabilities from across the breadth of Science and Engineering - we feel proud to play our part in that.
What
we create in our capabilities is the true goal of MoD in opening architectures, allowing for cheaper, easy technology insertions
and providing a real solid understanding of telecommunications and military comms. This understanding comes from highly
skilled practitioners with a deep technical knowledge within these areas. This
is complemented by Mid Range Software production engineering skills and abilities that span into some of the most complex
real time control systems in Europe. All of this ensures that the leadership and R&D creativity skills within the company
are well matched to that of many of the larger primes and specialists within this field worldwide.
It takes
maturity, honesty and considerable integrity to say - do we 100% get it right first time? Or better still do we always achieve
immensely tight timescales to design and build incredibly challanging and leading edge technology? No is the truthful answer....
Reflect on our honesty and integrity - don't jump to conclusions as you will be wrong... - Do we give up?
No
- Do we strive to find solutions and deliver? Yes
- Will we do this at our cost even if we then make a thumping
loss? Yes
- If we cant find the technology key parts or algorithms will we design, research and manufacture it?
Yes
- Our IP, R&D, Products and Projects we undertake aren't just integration!
Please contact us if we can
bring serious capabilities to your team and in-theatre needs.
We take an active interest in supporting Industrial
links to Universities as we have long held the view that such collaboration, funding, and involvement is crucial to the economic
viability of the UK. The UK enjoys a tremendously good Research Council underpinning all the educational establishments and science academies of the UK. Our main interests are in four of the councils,
Science & Technology, Biotechnology & Biological Sciences, Engineering & Physical Sciences, and Natural Environment. The Pan European Space Agency has equally good undepinning Research & Development programmes both in Academia and Industry. Our main interests are
in five of the main areas, Space Engineering, Space Technology, Telecoms & Integrated Applications, Advanced Concepts Team, and Aurora Programme. With a strong interest in Physics we often keep a keen eye on the leading edge research of both CERN & Diamond Light Source.
Some of our main Research & Development focus are as follows:
