Abstract Since upgrades of the CERN Large Hadron Collider are planned and design studies for a post-LHC particle accelerator are ongoing, it is key to ensure that the detectors and electronic components used in the CERN experiments and accelerators can withstand the high amount of radiation produced during particle collisions. To comply with this requirement, scientists perform radiation testing experiments, which consist in exposing these components to high levels of particle radiation to simulate the real operational conditions. The CERN Proton Irradiation Facility (IRRAD) is a well-established reference facility for conducting such experiments. Over the years, the IRRAD facility has developed a dedicated software infrastructure to support the control and monitoring systems used to manage these experiments, as well as to handle other important aspects such as dosimetry, spectrometry, and material traceability. In this paper, new developments and upgrades to the IRRAD software infrastructure are presented. These advances are crucial to ensure that the facility remains up-to-date and able to cope with the increasing (and always more complex) user needs. These software upgrades (some of them carried out within the EU-funded project AIDAinnova and EURO-LABS) will help to improve the efficiency and accuracy of the experiments performed at IRRAD and enhance the capabilities of this facility.
