Railways & Metro
Every train, track section and failure connected, so trains run on time.
Rolling stock, track, signalling and passenger data are run by separate departments on legacy systems.
The question it answers
“Which assets fail repeatedly and cause delays on this route?”
What changes: Higher punctuality, fewer in-service failures.
All seven layers

What a pilot measures
Each pilot measures 2 to 3 KPIs you already track, before and after. We publish no benefit numbers until a customer has measured them.
- Punctuality %
- Failures per million km
- Maintenance backlog
- Asset availability
Who it is for
- Zonal/divisional operations head
- Metro COO
Where it stands today
What runs today, and what we are still building.
We would rather tell you up front than discover it in week three. A pilot starts with what runs today.

Live means shipping in the product today. Partly live means part of the layer ships today and the rest is being built. Roadmap means being built and not available yet. We never show it as available.
