The people of Raytheon Systems Ltd. (RSL) devote their skills each day to protecting the United Kingdom using leading edge technology. From advanced defence and intelligence systems to air traffic management and homeland security systems, RSL helps keep the people of the UK safer and more secure.
There are opportunities with RSL throughout the UK in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland for skilled Information Technology & Services (IT&S) professionals.
What distinguishes RSL is our ability to integrate multiple systems to accomplish a specific mission using the latest technologies in sensing and C3I, as well as support activities such as training, logistics and maintenance. This mission systems integration capability is the single greatest advantage we offer our customers and partners. Over the last two years we have deployed new infrastructure and technology, exploiting the latest developments in virtualisation, networks, packaged applications, open source, security and middleware.
In November 2007, RSL was selected by the Home Office as prime contractor for the Trusted Borders consortium of companies who will deliver the UK’s “e-Borders” project, an advanced border control and security programme. As the prime contractor, RSL will be responsible for systems integration and overall project management at our new Uxbridge Systems Integration Centre in West London, which opened in August 2007.
RSL is a Tier One supplier to the UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) and is prime contractor for a number of major programmes such as ASTOR (Airborne Stand-Off Radar), SIFF (Successor Identification Friend or Foe), JETTS (Joint Effects Tactical Targeting System), anti-jam GPS antenna systems and precision engagement systems.
RSL commercial activities include Secondary Surveillance Radar systems for air traffic control and various integrated electronic systems, modules and sub-systems, power devices, hybrid electronics and semiconductors for the oil, gas, medical, automotive, space and communications industries.
In software, our goal is to supply software engineering solutions to programmes that need effective software development carried out in a controlled, expert and cost-efficient manner. Our team is able to support any part of the software lifecycle, from requirements gathering and definition, through integration and on-site acceptance testing. RSL follows best-practice processes, including Raytheon's IPDS, tailored locally to conform to SEI CMM.
RSL has a commitment to modern project management and process, indicated by the rapid achievement of ISO standard and CMMI Level-3 accreditation. Status tracking, risk management and EVMS are routinely used on all projects and RSL has proven ability to integrate with programmes and facilities in both the US and Europe.
