Our Capabilities
Project Delivery
IMES is a high voltage specialist organisation. Our total focus is to provide leading technical expertise in the area of high voltage engineering. We have the know-how, people and professionalism you would expect an expert to have.
As a result, at IMES we provide the recommendations, support and solutions you need to maintain, develop and protect the integrity of your organisation’s valuable high voltage infrastructure.
IMES manage the solutions integration and implementation process through all phases: analysis, tendering, design, manufacturing, system integration, acceptance testing and commissioning. Throughout the life of the project, it is our responsibility to coordinate all tasks, and ensure deliverables are achieved on time.
To that end we have coined the phrase “We say what we do, and we do what we say”.
Our market-leading expertise spans all HV segments – HVDC, generation, transmission and distribution – and a wide range of protection and control schemes/equipment. We offer specialist end-to-end testing and commissioning services for complete substations, including all protection, SCADA and control equipment.
IMES staff are high voltage experts in their field. Our in-depth understanding of our clients’ business requirements (technical, quality, safety, environmental) underpins our ability to provide the highest level of specialist support.
Solution Engineering
IMES brings you up solutions engineering for your project, first we specify the required results for your needs to get the project up to completion and functional, then we proceed to the erection of your project though skilful management, technical engineering performance and services security and modifications for the good process of your project.
Secondary systems are a critical component of any HV system – providing protection and control to your primary plant assets, and enhancing the reliability, safety and performance of plant. Secondary systems are often complex and connect to multiple remote systems, requiring thorough planning and an experienced team to ensure system security is maintained at all project stages
