Testing and Commissioning is essential to demonstrate compliance with the customer’s needs. This application requires a disciplined approach along with a deep understanding of the context of employment. The system will ensure all components of the range (Advanced Range Operating System (AROS), Target Lifter’s, Projectile Location Systems (PLS), Intelligent Visual Display Units (IVDU), Lane Initiators, Moving Targets and communications sub-systems) are all functioning as required. The requirements for the system are established early in the

Culminating in months of preparatory work, planning and manufacturing the installation process will commence on a timeline that meets the customers’ requirements. Installation Teams work concurrently on separate tasks across the range involving the 100 meter / 200 meter / 300 meter and 100 Movers to minimise range downtime and provide parallel effort that saves critical hours of work for the project. Critical at each step of the installation process is attention to detail for

Unfortunately, even the very best equipment and software systems become worn out and obsolete. When this occurs those system components will require to be decommissioned and the way cleared to install current and state of the art components to ensure that the Range System remains fit for purpose. Decommissioning typically will encompass the sub-system components such as the Control Room, Firing Point, Downrange Hardware including Target Lifters, Projectile Location Systems, Lane Markers and electrical and

Range configuration planning will encompass the layout of the range power and communications links that are a critical subset of the project and raise a hazard that equates to a severe risk. The risk is, there is the potential of electrocution from unidentified yet underground power sources being cut or interrupted that may not appear on older drawings, hence the approach to digging, ground penetration and trenching is taken with extreme caution to prevent any

A “Core Value” of ATS is the relentless pursuit of excellence, with that in mind a focus on the exacting standards that are required for the Marksman are also measured in the warehouse prior to being shipped to site. Items are receipted and unpacked to allow ATS Staff to carry out inspections that ensure quality products are delivered to the customer. Any deviation, distortion or fault will be identified and returned to the manufacturing location
