Rail station contract award;

Passenger Information Systems framework agreement with large PTA customer

21st Century Technology plc (AIM; C21), one of the UK's leading specialist technology service providers to the transport industry, is pleased to announce that it has been awarded a contract with one of the UK's major rail franchises and has secured an important new framework agreement with a large Passenger Transport Authority ("PTA") customer, adding to an existing maintenance contract.

The rail contract is for the upgrade of CCTV systems on and around a number of railway stations and is worth c. £0.3 million.  21^st Century already provides high-definition forward-facing CCTV systems to this operator and is currently in the process of installing its latest 'in-carriage' CCTV systems across their whole fleet of trains. The railway station contract is scheduled to be completed during the first half of 2016, although significant works should be undertaken in 2015.

The framework agreement, for a large PTA customer, is for the supply, installation and maintenance of bus passenger information display 'totems' incorporating a software based content management system ("CMS"). The CMS operates as an on-line digital library enabling the totem screens to switch between travel information and broadcast quality marketing and public service messaging. The first order under the framework is c. £0.3m for 17 totems which are due to be installed and operational in Q1 2016 and will be supported in the field under a 5 year contract.

Commenting on the contract awards 21^st Century's Chief Executive, Russ Singleton, said; "We are pleased with our continuing progress in extending our rail offering and building on the existing relationship with this important PTA.  The railway station contract extends our capabilities to include track-side and platform CCTV which complements the other range of on-train solutions we already provide such as forward facing situational awareness and in-carriage CCTV surveillance. The framework agreement with the PTA broadens our revenue base in urban travel information provision by combining our ruggedized public display systems with sophisticated content management software which provides the PTA with a more powerful active messaging service to their general public."
