Stockcode:

We serve the utility and rail sectors with asset management and electricity pole numbering and tagging services, using unique technology platforms to track faults, damaged or missing poles and any other access issues along the UK’s crucial infrastructure.

Our pole numbering and tagging technologies identify damage to poles and enable a reactive maintenance service.

As part of our work for Western Power Distribution, we tagged 380,000 electricity poles with a unique number, demonstrating our ability to take on any size or scale of project.

Our thorough live reporting service provides customers with up-to-date, detailed reports and photographic evidence of work. This cloud-based system is secure and accurate, informing customers of potential hazards in real time.

Ground Control Ltd

I have worked at Ground Control for over 15 years and have always been treated well with investment made in regards to training/courses. The company is very forward thinking and has expanded/grown during my time with the business which is great to see, providing new opportunities and keen to promote from within as well as bring in new employees for a fresh approach. The direction now is one of "caring for the environment" and one they take very seriously with ambitious plans in regards to tree planting.
