Technology Solutions

Detailed delivery capability, compliance approach and examples of works in this sector.

Marshdale Construction Ltd is a technology-led delivery partner. We design, build and operate mission-critical digital infrastructure and smart systems for clients across the UK and worldwide, often in complex, live environments such as rail, aviation, healthcare, justice, retail and commercial estates. Our team blends deep enterprise IT and operational technology (OT) expertise with field engineering, allowing us to take full ownership from strategy and design through installation, integration, commissioning and ongoing support.

We’ve more than doubled the size of our specialist technology team since 2022 and now deliver end-to-end programmes across EMEA, APAC and North America — from multi-site rollouts to single-site flagship installations — underpinned by robust governance, safety, and information security.

What we deliver (at a glance)

  • WAN / LAN networks – SD-WAN, MPLS, secure VPN, routing, switching, QoS and segmentation for high availability estates.
  • Copper & fibre infrastructure – Cat6/6A structured cabling; OM4/OS2 fibre spines; containment and patching; certification and as-builts.
  • Wireless technologies – Wi-Fi (incl. Wi-Fi 6/6E), microwave, Bluetooth/BLE, IoT transports (LoRaWAN, Zigbee).
  • Digital IP CCTV & analytics – AI-driven video, VMS, remote monitoring, detection/prevention solutions.
  • Access control & identity – hardware, controllers, readers, turnstiles, visitor management and SSO integrations.
  • Intruder & security alarms – integrated with CCTV/ACS for unified response and workflows.
  • Digital signage & AV – CMS-driven networks, retail media, CIS, wayfinding, enterprise AV.
  • Public Address / Voice Alarm (PA/VA) – announcements and life-safety VA integrated to building/transport systems.
  • Software engineering & data – web apps, desktop tooling, APIs, pipelines, dashboards.
  • Smart buildings & IoT – sensors, metering and BMS integrations for energy, comfort and predictive maintenance.

Networks & Connectivity

Enterprise WAN/LAN: resilient campus and branch networks using SD-WAN, MPLS/IPSec, dynamic routing, QoS for voice/video, and zero-trust segmentation. Structured cabling: copper/fibre builds (Cat6/6A; OM4/OS2) with full certification and as-builts. Wireless: Wi-Fi 6/6E, microwave backhaul, BLE for occupancy, IoT bearers for low-power sensing.

Security Technology (CCTV, Access, Intruder): AI-enabled CCTV with edge/server analytics; access control with SSO and visitor workflows; unified alarm platforms with correlated alerts; full GDPR-compliant retention, audit trails and encryption.

Digital Signage, AV, CIS & PA/VA: multi-site signage and CMS, retail and rail CIS, hospital/airport passenger systems. Voice alarm systems integrated to fire/building systems with live paging.

Smart Buildings & IoT: environmental, occupancy and energy sensors; edge gateways; BMS integrations (BACnet, Modbus, KNX, DALI). CAFM/BI pipelines enabling predictive maintenance, automated work orders and dashboards.

Software Engineering & Data: web and desktop apps, REST/gRPC APIs, event pipelines, dashboards, and SLA-driven alerting. All delivered with security-by-design, secrets management and automated testing.

Cybersecurity & Governance: secure-by-design principles throughout, including NAC (802.1X), WPA3-Enterprise, segmentation, baselines, vulnerability management and NCSC-aligned measures.

Deployment in Complex, Live Environments

  • Rail & stations – safety-critical possessions, CIS/PA integration, remote monitoring.
  • Airports – landside/airside deployments, secure zones, cutovers with minimal operational impact.
  • Hospitals – IPC-driven methods, out-of-hours works, clinical safety and resilience.
  • Justice & custodial – secure regimes, escort protocols, controlled materials and tool governance.
  • Retail & commercial – rollout governance, brand standards, rapid refits and national refresh programmes.

Exemplars (snapshots)

  • AI CCTV across EMEA for a global sports brand – multi-country IP video estate with edge analytics and centralised VMS; analytics hosted in the EU with global reporting overlays.
  • Smart estate telemetry – IoT sensors integrated to BMS/CAFM driving predictive maintenance, energy reduction and occupant comfort.
  • Transport information & PA/VA – integrated CIS, signage and announcement systems improving dwell-time info, safety messaging and accessibility.

Operate, Support & Improve: 24/7 support, remote monitoring, SLAs, spares strategies and lifecycle planning. Full documentation packs (as-builts, registers, configs, O&M). Post-go-live optimisation cycles ensure performance, analytics accuracy and UX refinements.
