The legal entity OOO RTSoft-ES operates alongside wholly-owned subsidiaries RTSoft-Smart Grid (grid management systems), RTSoft-VS (embedded computer technologies), and RTSoft-Project (software development and project implementation). The group employs 150+ engineers, programmers, and technical specialists across R&D divisions in multiple Russian cities and reports more than 10,000 successfully completed projects over 33 years of operation. Its two primary customer verticals are the Russian electric power sector (generation, transmission, distribution, substations) and industrial enterprises, with secondary exposure to smart city, urban transport, and distributed energy. Named end customers include PJSC RusHydro, PJSC FSK EES, and Russian distribution grid companies (MRSK/CES).

The product portfolio combines proprietary hardware and software. The BLOK line is a series of Russian-made fanless industrial computers based on Intel Core and Xeon embedded processors in COM Express Type 6 modules, deployed as station controllers, connection controllers, SCADA servers, and operator workstations in substations. Platinum Electro is a software platform for modeling, steady-state and short-circuit analysis of electric power systems. Advanced Protection Suite (APS) is a software complex for automating relay protection and automation (RPA) tasks including calculations, settings verification, real-time monitoring, and documentation for 6–750 kV equipment; APS is entered in the Unified Register of Russian Computer Programs and Databases of the Ministry of Digital Development. RITMS UP2DATE is a state-registered software system (certificate No. 2022666269) for cyber-secure firmware updates and lifecycle management of connected devices, available as SaaS or on-premise.

RTSoft generates revenue through four streams: software licensing (perpetual and subscription), hardware sales (BLOK computers), system integration and engineering services, and SaaS deployment. Published pricing anchors include a RITMS UP2DATE minimum tariff of 2,700 RUB/month and Advanced Protection Suite starting at 100,000 RUB; most contracts are project-specific. Go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales through dedicated business divisions, supplemented by sector trade events (РЗА Forum, ExpoElectronica), the corporate website, and Telegram/YouTube channels. Key partners include Intel Corporation (core technology), CIGRE Russia, Russoft, the Agency for Strategic Initiatives, and Ural Federal University. The group operates primarily in Russia and CIS/Eastern Europe.
