The London Borough of Newham, a London borough hosting the 2012 Olympic Games, has appointed Red-M to advise and scope an advanced next generation wireless network that will form part of a borough-wide communications solution.

The borough will use this network in its day-to-day operation for mission critical applications such as CCTV, security, mobile workers, environmental monitoring and voice over IP. This network will also be available for the 2012 Olympic Games development.

Red-M is working in partnership with SNT Group, Newham's technology commercialisation consultants for 2012. Together Red-M and SNT Group deliver similar, yet appropriately customised value propositions to other UK local authorities.

Red-M is a wireless professional services company that provides consultancy, audit, design, implementation, systems integration and management services. The company says that it provides insight into the benefits and challenges of current and future wireless technologies and creates mission critical wireless networks that are "delivered to requirements, right, first time."

Red-M has successfully completed 1000s of radio projects including over 300 major wireless systems in a range of diverse and challenging locations, including corporate buildings (e.g. Canary Wharf), most of the major airports in the UK (Heathrow), large shopping centres (Meadowhall), key UK sporting venues (Millennium Stadium), train stations (Waterloo), and hospitals (Bristol).

The company's capabilities span all wireless technologies including Cellular (2G, 3G & GSM-R) PMR, Wi-Fi and WiMAX, and its customers include 3, Airwave, BAA, British Land, Bullring, Network Rail, O2, Ofcom, and T-Mobile.
