Systems Engineering and Assurance

We offer project safety engineering and management services, especially for safety and mission-critical systems. We help organisations with all aspects of systems assurance for high-integrity systems, including safety cases, reliability reports, verification and validation, quality management and configuration management. We help organisations plan and execute their system safety programmes to achieve accreditation.

We provide services in Reliability, Availability and Maintainability (RAM) engineering and management, providing analysis of critical systems, determination of targets and strategies, and performance demonstration. We develop tailored RAM strategies and plans, and reliability modelling and analysis, for operators and suppliers.

We help organisations with all aspects of systems engineering, especially for software-intensive systems. This includes systems engineering planning, requirements engineering, system design and verification and validation.

TSA Riley conducts independent professional reviews to arrive at a judgement on the adequacy of the system / functional safety achieved by the Item Under Consideration (IUC) or its level of compliance to relevant standards. These professional reviews include the provision of expert advice and the conduct of independent safety and software assessments, especially in accordance with CENELEC EN 50126/8/9, EN 50716, IEC 61508, Yellow Book, or Def (Aust) 5679.

We develop and deliver products and systems in safety-related and safety-critical domains. Our portfolio of existing products includes the Australian Rail Risk Model, the Level Crossing Management (LXM) tool, the Safety Interface Agreement Management System, and many more. We have the proven capability to deliver software with a Safety Integrity / Assurance Level.

We can design bespoke training for industry in the areas of systems assurance, particularly for system safety management, rail safety, and engineering for high-integrity software-intensive systems.

We specialise in Human Factors planning and assessment and in the analysis and design of human-machine interfaces, and we can provide practical expert advice in this area.

Our Project Consultants have experience analysing large data sets to identify risk trends. We developed the Australian Rail Risk Model (ARRM) and have applied machine learning, vision processing, and artificial intelligence (AI) to assist industry and government agencies in identifying and quantifying risk.

Our subject matter experts provide Information and Communications Technology (ICT) security services for high-integrity systems, including ICT security risk assessments and development / monitoring of ICT security plans.
