The Servelec Group is a UK-based technology group, with significant intellectual property, providing software, hardware and services predominantly to the UK healthcare, oil & gas, nuclear, power, utilities and broadcast sectors.


The Servelec Group’s business was founded in 1977 and, since October 2000, has been wholly-owned by CSE Global, a company whose shares are traded on the main board of the Singapore Stock Exchange. Servelec has a strong technology and engineering heritage and today employs a highly skilled and knowledgeable workforce of approximately 500 full-time staff operating predominantly from offices around the UK. The majority of these staff are based at the Group’s purpose built offices in Sheffield, one of which functions as the Group’s headquarters.

The origins of the Group’s business were in the design and manufacture of control systems for the Sheffield steel industry. Since that time, Servelec has grown both organically and by acquisition and now operates two divisions: Servelec Healthcare and Servelec Automation.

Servelec Healthcare specialises in the design, development and implementation of Electronic Patient Record ("EPR") software within secondary care settings and is a market leader in the Mental Health and Community Health sectors in England.

Since the listing, Servelec has continued the good progress it made through 2013 and the full-year results will be in line with the Board's expectations.



Sales activity in Healthcare is increasing and Servelec has been awarded the first two Trust wins as part of the on-going Camden (London and the South) re-fresh programme. With regards to Servelec Automation, across both Controls and Technologies, the anticipated shift from the design stage to the pricing stage for our products and services with a number of our customers continues to progress in line with our expectations.



Following the acquisition of Semaphore in October 2013, the integration programme is progressing well and we are delighted to have recruited Andrew Sullivan from Ultra Electronics as Managing Director of Servelec Technologies to further assist this process.



Alan Stubbs, Chief Executive, commented: "Following our successful listing, we are pleased that our strong performance has continued to deliver a full-year performance in line with the Board's expectations. The outlook for the structural and regulatory growth drivers across our markets remains encouraging and we are looking forward to capitalising on these exciting opportunities as a listed company."

Servelec Healthcare contract wins



Servelec Group plc ("Servelec") today announces that its Healthcare division has started 2014 with strong continued progress in contract wins.



Servelec Healthcare has been awarded another preferred supplier status under the London Framework for Mental Health and Community. This means that it has now won three contracts out of three in the Application Lot 1, as well as two wins in Hosting Lot 2.



In addition, in January, Servelec Healthcare took a Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust live with its Oceano Emergency Department Solution. The delivery was the quickest installation to date by Servelec Healthcare with the project commencing late 2013 and was achieved in the most challenging winter period that A&E departments have seen for some time. The company's Oceano customers are growing and this new live installation brings the total deployments of this innovative product to three new sites.



Servelec's activity and presence in the Community Health sector has also strengthened with a Community win in the North of England for a Spine-connected Community hospital deployment which went live at the beginning of the year.



Alan Stubbs, Chief Executive Officer, commented:



"We are excited about the start that Servelec Healthcare has made to the year, three out of three in the London Refresh, together with two successful go-lives. It is an illustration that our healthcare division has the right product portfolio, market position, route to market and delivery capability to capitalise on the growth opportunities ahead."



Preliminary results for the year ended 31 December 2013 will be announced on 12 March 2014.

Big move up again today in a weaker market, small cap inclusion next few weeks?!

Naked trader today - I also bought some more Servelec (LON:SERV). I bought quite a few in December at 212 and it has already served up profits of more than 25%. I've been attracted in to buy more, it was moving up in a down market yesterday so I added this time getting another lot at 266 yesterday .

The market really seems to like this one and it continues to have great prospects for a rise up to and above 300.

Servelec Healthcare Appointed Preferred Bidder Status by Two NHS Trusts



The Board of Servelec is delighted to announce that Servelec Healthcare has been notified of the award of preferred bidder status for the next two NHS Trusts to announce their choice of software provider for Mental Health or Community Health services under the Camden framework.



One of these two Trusts has also selected Servelec Healthcare to provide hosting services for RiO V7 making a total of three so far.



Servelec Healthcare has now been chosen by the first five NHS Trusts which have selected their preferred supplier using the Camden Framework.



The Camden Framework is the main mechanism by which Trusts currently running RiO under the BT LSP contract can exit from the National Programme in London and the South of England, providing each organisation with the ability to choose their supplier.



Alan Stubbs, CEO of Servelec commented that "we are very pleased that Trusts are seeing the benefit of staying with Servelec Healthcare and their future with RiO V7."

Portsmouth A&E Department live with Oceano ED

Following open procurement, Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust awarded Servelec Healthcare Limited a 5 year contract to deliver Oceano ED to support and help the A&E department run more efficiently reducing paperwork and streamlining business processes for clinicians.

Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust has now gone live with Oceano, just 4 months after signing the contract and during the, often problematic, winter period. Subsequent phases will follow including the integration of Oceano with other Emergency Department systems.

Oceano will replace the time intensive manual processes enabling the Trust to ultimately go paperless within the department and improve patient care.

Consultant in Emergency Medicine, Dr Eliot Wilkinson from Portsmouth Hospitals NHS Trust said:

"PHT are excited to be working in partnership with Servelec taking modern Emergency Care forward ensuring safe and quality care to our patients".

Lindsay Dransfield Servelec Healthcare's Sales Director comments:

Group continues to perform well; trading in-line with expectations, outlook remains positive



The Board of Servelec Group plc ("Servelec") is pleased to publish its interim management statement for the three months to 31 March 2014.



Group



Both the Healthcare and Automation divisions continue to trade in-line with market expectations.



Healthcare



Servelec Healthcare has enjoyed healthy trading during the period. We have been nominated as preferred bidder on the majority of the projects which have been announced across London & the South of England and also in the North. We continue to invest in our products and are seeing positive signs of early adoption of RiO v7 which will be going live in the first of the "Camden Trusts" during the third quarter of this year.



The levels of order entry in Healthcare are in-line with expectations and we are confident that our best-in-class products combined with our very strong market position means the healthcare business will continue the positive momentum.



Automation



Our business continues to trade in-line with market expectations. There has been a slight delay with a small number of the large Oil & Gas and Power capital projects with which we are involved, but those orders are still expected to come through in this financial year. These delays being offset by further consultancy work and a strong performance from Servelec Technologies. We remain very confident about the long term growth drivers, with the outlook for order entry improving.



Financial position



The company continues to be in a strong financial position with increased cash reserves as the roll out of RiO (R2) in London and the South releases the WIP which had accrued under the NPfIT contract.



Alan Stubbs, CEO of Servelec Group, said: "We are pleased with the continued progress and momentum we have shown. The Healthcare division and our Automation division have both performed in accordance with our expectation illustrating the quality of our product offering and strong market position."

The Camden Framework is the main mechanism by which Trusts currently running RiO under the British Telecom Local Service Provider contract can exit from the National Programme in London and the South of England, providing each organisation with the ability to choose their supplier.



Alan Stubbs, CEO of Servelec, commented: "We are delighted to be seeing Trusts selecting RiO V7 earlier than anticipated which underpins our confidence in both the capability of our products and our ability to continue to win further contracts under the Camden Framework and elsewhere".

Group Project Wins





The Board of Servelec is delighted to announce important project wins for Servelec Controls ('Controls') a part of Servelec Automation, and Servelec Healthcare.



Servelec Controls has been awarded a significant project, valued at over £1m, to provide an updated Production Control System (PCS) for a Combined Heat and Power ("CHP") Plant that is to be relocated from the UK to Turkey. The project, which involves the replacement of the control system hardware and software with a modern equivalent, will be implemented in the UK during 2014 followed by a Time and Materials contract for the on-site commissioning as the CHP plant re-starts.



Servelec Healthcare has been notified of the award of preferred supplier status for the latest NHS Trust to announce their choice of software provider for Mental Health or Community Health services under the Camden Framework.



Servelec Healthcare has now been chosen by eight out of nine of the NHS Trusts which have selected their preferred supplier using the Camden Framework.



The Camden Framework is the main mechanism by which Trusts currently running RiO under the British Telecom Local Service Provider ("BT LSP") contract can exit from the National Programme in London and the South of England, thereby providing each organisation with the ability to choose their own, ongoing supplier before the end of the BT LSP contract in October 2015.



Alan Stubbs, CEO of Servelec Group, commented: "We are delighted with the project win for Servelec Controls especially given that we had recently flagged the slight delay in a small number of contract awards. It is also very pleasing to see the continuing success of Servelec Healthcare in securing preferred supplier status with a further NHS Trust. Our teams are working hard and we are seeing the results of those efforts."

Servelec Healthcare wins two projects in the North of England



The Board of Servelec is delighted to announce important project wins for its healthcare division. Servelec Healthcare has been awarded preferred bidder status for the most recent two Mental Health and Community Trusts from the North of England to select their chosen provider.



The North of England Trusts were not previously customers of Servelec Healthcare and therefore represent a significant growth opportunity for the Group, known within Servelec as "North New".



These two projects have both been won in open competition where RiO, the Servelec Healthcare product, wasn't the incumbent system. Both wins demonstrate the strength and quality of the RiO product.



Servelec Healthcare, with its RiO product, has now won nine out of the last ten Trusts outside of the National Programme refresh who have selected a new system in open competition.



Alan Stubbs, CEO of Servelec Group, commented: "We are delighted with the project wins for Servelec Healthcare. We have clearly demonstrated that in open competition RiO is competitive, delivering a functionally rich Electronic Patient Record (EPR) that meets the needs of our clients".

Four Major Project Wins for Servelec Controls



The Board of Servelec is delighted to announce that Servelec Controls is involved in four major projects, worth in excess of £3million.

The first is the installation of a dry fuel store monitoring system in a UK nuclear power station that will help increase the lifetime of the plant by a further 20 years. The scope of work for Servelec Controls includes the design, manufacture and site installation of the system that will primarily monitor the temperature of Multi-Purpose Canisters (MPC's).

The second is the replacement of sootblower controls at one of the UK's largest coal-fired power stations. Sootblowers remove soot from boilers to ensure they operate at maximum efficiency and Servelec have been selected to replace the existing obsolete Allen Bradley controls with Rockwell ControlLogix PLC's.

Servelec Controls oil & gas division has won a significant contract that requires the design and installation of modifications to the Process Controls System of a power station as well as new Fire & Gas and Emergency Shut-Down systems. The modifications are required to remove the use of Freon R-22, an Ozone Depleting Substance, to help the plant comply with the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer.

Finally, Servelec Controls will be involved in a unique project that will see the relocation of an entire power plant from the UK to the Middle East. Once the CHP power plant has been deconstructed, transported and rebuilt, Servelec Controls will design, construct and install a site-wide Distributed Control System (DCS), design and fit out new Local Equipment Rooms (LER's) and provide technical proposals for the migration of existing Fire & Gas and Emergency Shut-Down Systems.

Servelec Controls is part of Servelec Automation, a fully-owned subsidiary of Servelec Group plc. The Servelec Group is a UK-based technology group, providing software, hardware and services predominantly to the UK healthcare, oil & gas, nuclear, power, utilities and broadcast sectors.

The wins we continue to achieve and the integration work we have undertaken in 2014 create a strong foundation for growth in future years. This will enable us to capitalise on opportunities in front of both of our divisions' pushing into new areas such as the Acute health market, and developing opportunities through our global distribution network in Automation."
