WinGuard expertise. From concept to operation.

We plan how technology, operation and day-to-day running work together. Agreed results make progress and quality in the project verifiable. Scroll once through the whole cycle.

01 Scope of services

What we do for your system.

Six services, each with clear results. You can start with any of them, whether a new control room or a system in operation.

01 · CONSULTING & PLANNING

A verifiable basis.

An idea becomes a technical basis against which everything can be measured. We record existing systems, relevant events and the tasks of your operators.

System and version overview
Requirements and interface scope
Server, network and redundancy concept
Acceptance criteria and expansion outlook

02 · INSTALLATION & INTEGRATION

Interfaces that work together.

An interface only helps when messages, states and control functions work together sensibly in the overall system. That is exactly what we build and test.

Installation and configuration of WinGuard
Data points, graphics and event assignment
Response procedures and operator rights
Functional testing and traceable acceptance

Plan an integration →

03 · MIGRATION & EXTENSION

Change, with a fallback plan.

With any change, it must be clear what is carried over, what changes and how to respond if something goes wrong. Whether a version change, for example to X5, or a new subsystem, a new site or an additional workstation.

Record the starting version and dependencies
Check drivers, modules and licensing
Plan backup, testing and switchover sequence
Prepare fallback, final check and documentation

Migration to X5 in detail →Discuss a migration

04 · MAINTENANCE & SUPPORT

Faults along the chain.

We look at the current condition of the system and narrow down faults along the actual processing chain, from the subsystem to the operator. Including systems we did not install ourselves.

Check system status and logs
Narrow down faults from subsystem to operator
Prepare changes and updates under control
Agree maintenance scope, availability and escalation

Support in detail →Request support

05 · TRAINING & DOCUMENTATION

People who operate with confidence.

Training is based on the tasks in operation. Operation, administration and technical upkeep need different priorities. We practise on your real procedures.

Practise event sequences with examples
Explain operator roles and responsibilities
Teach administration and upkeep tasks
Document changes and system decisions

Training in detail →Request training

06 · CAD & VISUALISATION

Plans that provide orientation.

A good floor plan shows the relevant information in a structure that suits operation. We prepare existing CAD drawings for WinGuard.

Check existing plans and how current they are
Clean up layers, rooms and labels
Define the graphics and navigation structure
Check detector assignment and display

Already using WinGuard?

We start with a system check.

Version, documentation, interfaces and open issues of an existing installation. Even if we did not install the system ourselves.

The result

A clear list: now, planned, later.

You know what is urgent, what can be planned and what can wait. Then you decide whether and how we continue.

02 How we work

How we show expertise.

A WinGuard project must remain understandable for engineers, operators and managers. Four principles you can measure us against.

System boundaries

We clarify boundaries and dependencies.

What does WinGuard do, what stays in the subsystem, what depends on what? Before we connect anything, it is clear where each component’s responsibility ends.

SubsystemsNetworkResponsibilities

Decisions

We document technical decisions.

Why this adapter, this priority, this server role? The reasons are in the documentation, so they can still be followed in five years’ time.

ConfigurationRationalePlans

Results

We define verifiable results.

Acceptance criteria are fixed before implementation: which message, which plan, which response, which switchover behaviour. Testing is against these, not by gut feeling.

Acceptance criteriaTest casesRecord

Operation

We think about later operation.

Who maintains the data points, who changes response procedures, who is alerted when? A system is only finished when your team can run it independently.

UpkeepRolesEscalation

03 Migration in detail

Six steps. One way back.

A changeover alters a defined starting state. That is why it is decided beforehand when and how to go back.

Discuss a migration →

Record the starting point

Version, adapters, modules, licences and documentation. What runs today, and what of it must keep running?

VersionAdaptersLicences

Check dependencies

Drivers, database, operating system and the interfaces of the subsystems. What changes with the new version?

DriversDatabaseSubsystems

Back up and test

Full backup, test environment and test cases taken from your real operation.

BackupTest environmentTest cases

Set the sequence

Time windows, responsibilities and coordination with the control room during the changeover.

Time windowsRolesCommunication

Switch over with fallback criteria

Agreed beforehand: how do we recognise that we abort and go back, and how long may that take?

Abort criteriaFallback

Final check and documentation

Functional test, record and updated documentation. Only then is the migration complete.

Questions

Questions about our services.

Do you provide maintenance and support for existing systems?

Yes, including systems we did not install ourselves. We start with a system check and then agree the scope of maintenance, availability and escalation.

Does E&S Rose support the migration to WinGuard X5?

Yes. We record the starting version, adapters and licences, plan backup, switchover sequence and fallback, and support the changeover through to the final check.

How does a project with E&S Rose work?

Consulting and planning create a verifiable basis. Then come installation and integration, acceptance against agreed criteria, training for your team and operation with maintenance and support.

Can we commission individual services only?

Yes. Every service has its own starting point, for example a system check, a training course or the preparation of floor plans.

The next step

Where does your system stand today?

A new control room, a system in operation or an upcoming version change: briefly describe your situation and we will prepare the conversation technically.
