One architecture

One Co-System, not a collection of disconnected products. Each platform has a specialised function. All of them share a common intelligent integration engine and a trusted engineering knowledge foundation.

Together, they turn engineering knowledge into safer operations and smarter decisions. The name is deliberate. “Co” stands for four commitments that run through every tier: connectivity, compliance, collaboration and coordination.

The four tiers

Four tiers, always in this order.

Select a tier to see its role, or go straight to a Connected Operations product.

  1. TIER 01Knowledge & Competence

    S2-Academy™ & S2-TechSafe™

    S2-Academy™ is the foundation: structured training, competence development and certification. S2-TechSafe™ follows with continuing engineering knowledge and CPD.

  2. TIER 02Connected Operations

    Connected Operations

    Connected safety systems for the workshop floor and the battery lifecycle.

  3. TIER 03Intelligence

    S2-INTEL™

    The operational intelligence platform. It makes evidence easier to see, connect and act on.

  4. TIER 04Decision

    S2-AI™

    Future governed decision support. It is designed to inform human judgement, not replace it.

    Explore S2-AI™

Text equivalent: Tier 1 Knowledge & Competence, S2-Academy™ as the foundation and S2-TechSafe™ for continuing knowledge and CPD. Tier 2 Connected Operations, S2-Hoist™, S2-Thermal™ and S2-VoltVault™. Tier 3 Intelligence, S2-INTEL™. Tier 4 Decision, S2-AI™. S2-BRAIN™ is the common technology and integration foundation, S2-AIM™ a supporting asset-intelligence platform, S2-IMS™ the governance framework and S2-Mobility™ the application and expansion domain. None of these is an additional tier.

What “Co” means

Four commitments in one name.

C1

Connectivity

How our different hardware modules talk to each other.

C2

Compliance

The system’s adherence to Australian and international standards.

C3

Collaboration

How the system works alongside human operators to improve safety.

C4

Coordination

The synchronised management of data and physical safety assets.

The common engine

S2-BRAIN™ is the brain. S2-INTEL™ is the cognitive mind.

S2-BRAIN™ is the common intelligent integration engine that connects and enables all S2 platforms: hardware, software and data. One shared electronics platform means each new product starts from proven foundations.

At a glance

Why one architecture matters.

01

Knowledge and competence first

S2-Academy™ builds training and competence. S2-TechSafe™ provides the governed engineering knowledge and continuing professional development that everything in the S2 Co-System™ is built on.

02

Intelligence built in layers

Engineering knowledge enables operational intelligence, which in turn supports decision intelligence.

03

Common integration engine

S2-BRAIN™ connects hardware, software and data securely across all platforms.

04

Safety, compliance and performance

All platforms are designed to improve safety, reduce risk and enhance operational performance.

05

Scalable and future ready

The architecture is extensible to support new platforms, applications and adjacent mobility sectors.

06

Built for many readers

Workshops, fleets, OEMs, regulators, emergency services, academia and insurers each read the same evidence their own way.
