LONDON (ShareCast) - (ShareCast News) - A recently-expanded 21st Century Technology was celebrating two contract wins on Tuesday, worth a total of £0.5m.
The AIM-traded provider of specialist technology to the passenger and transport industries said its Fleet Systems division, based in Croydon, had secured a contract with one of the UK's major passenger transport operators to carry out electrical power supply modifications work for vital on-board IT sub-systems on a selection of its nationwide fleet.

21st Century said the £0.3m project involved its engineering and operations team working closely with the operator's planning and engineering teams to complete modification work overnight in depots across the UK in a compressed timescale. Work was due to finish in the first half.

In addition, the company's Integrated Systems division - formed from the April 2015 acquisition of Coventry-based Region Services Group - secured its first contract with a local authority for the upgrade of its urban security scheme.

The £0.2m contract involved converting the system to IP technology, and encompassed a new control complex incorporating video management, command and control systems.

"We are delighted that these major customers have selected us to carry out these important and time sensitive upgrades and modification works," said 21st Century chief executive Russ Singleton.

"These are further examples of 21st Century delivering on our commitment to broaden the range of services we can offer to the public transport sector and leverages our abilities as we move towards providing a more complete range of technical services into diverse fleets across all IT based 'on-board' technologies," he added.
