Training and exercise tracking: after-action review from where people really were.After-action reviews built on where people think they were?

Close-quarters (CQC) training

Without tracking, an after-action review relies on what the instructor saw and what each trainee remembers. With UWB, each person wears a small tag, and anchors on the walls or ceiling follow every tag during the run.

• A replay of each run, room by room, that you can pause at any doorway.
• Who went where, in what order, and how long each person spent in each space.
• Runs you can compare across a course, to support instructor oversight.

We don't sell hardware, so our advice stays independent. We help you choose it and prove it in one CQC training facility on rented equipment, against pass/fail criteria agreed in writing before the pilot starts.

Your security team sets the rules for where data lives, who sees replays and whether the system runs offline. We make sure the system can meet them, and we work within your export-control process.

Demo scenario.

RFID for the armoury, evidence room and keys

RFID can log sign-outs at the armoury door, give you a quick full count of the room and keep a clear record for evidence, keys and sensitive kit. We help you choose it and prove it in one room on rented equipment.

• Sign-outs at the door or issue hatch: what went out, who took it, when, and what came back.
• Quick full counts checked against your register: what's missing, extra or in the wrong place.
• Evidence moves recorded from shelf to lab, to court and back.
• Keys on tagged fobs, and radios, optics and other controlled kit, recorded at issue and return.

Most armoury items are metal, so tags are placed with care, never over a serial number or required marking, and your armourer signs off the fitting. The system should feed the register you already run. Whether its records meet your evidential rules is for your legal and professional standards teams to confirm.

Competitors (advisory view).

Force-on-force and MOUT training stacks increasingly combine instrumentation, simulated lethality and locating. Notable reference points include large programmes such as French Army CERBERE (Thales / RUAG with Quuppa-class local positioning for soldiers, vehicles and effects across multi-building urban sites), plus specialist defence instrumentation primes and industrial locating suppliers adapted for ranges. Commercial athlete LPS and industrial UWB platforms sometimes appear in lighter training or police/fire academies, with very different assurance, encryption and export-control needs.

How suppliers pitch vs what to buy. Suppliers pitch continuous tracks and after-action replay. Training audiences should buy: replay that reconstructs decisions and engagements (not only polylines); indoor-outdoor continuity in buildings, stairwells and tunnels; timing aligned to weapon/effects instrumentation; and data handling fit for restricted environments. We provide independent locating architecture and integration advice where programmes need an independent layer.
