Having introduced the UK’s first tariff approved electronic meter in 1988, technological thought leadership has contributed to PRI’s success. We believe that people innovate and innovation helps build a sustainable and profitable business. Not surprisingly, PRI has invested heavily into research and development through its active association with Entity Group’s R&D facilities located worldwide. Today this capability is being harnessed to add value to a myriad of utility business solutions.

 

People, Physical Infrastructure and Processes are the three Pillars of PRI’s R&D capability.

 

PRI’s people capability is captured in the domain expertise developed since the company was founded and this has led to a number of “world-first” solutions in many markets PRI operates in. 

 

The team expertise spans a number of key functions ranging from advanced analogue and digital hardware and embedded systems design to communication, and network expertise including advanced database and system applications.

 

 The deployment of advanced technologies and applications requires an in-depth knowledge of product validation, quality systems, simulation analysis and reliability modeling.

 

Technical excellence on a sustainable basis is achieved through simple but effective processes. These processes are built around the fundamental principle of creating customer value through effective collaboration.
