Ensuring continuous and safe operation of rail assets
Alstom’s digital solutions ease daily operations activities and keep fleets running safely and reliably. Our asset performance monitoring technology with reliable real-time information enables you to quickly respond to in-service issues. Improve your daily operations with intelligent rostering and harness our remote operation capabilities including train wake up and preparations, and remote software management. Alstom also offers solutions for energy consumption optimisation, including energy usage monitoring and technology to help reduce consumption.

Simulation and training for safe and efficient operation of rail assets
Leveraging the latest virtual (VR) and augmented (AR) reality technology, Alstom offers training and simulation solutions to help prepare your staff to operate rail assets efficiently and safely. With our VR and AR solutions, staff can quickly be trained on a product which is not yet available, providing a safe and accessible training environment. Alstom offers innovative driving simulators with real-world simulation of the complete transport system in 3D and a ‘first person’ perspective.

Increasing asset availability and reliability with digital maintenance
Alstom provides solutions for condition-based and predictive maintenance to maximise availability and reliability while minimsing maintenance costs over time. With HealthHub™, Alstom’s digital solution for predictive maintenance and fleet management, we continuously monitor the health of railway assets, including Alstom and non-Alstom trains, infrastructure, and signalling. HealthHub™ enables up to 20% in material cost savings, and decreases train downtime by up to 30% and recurring faults by up to 50%.
Boosting maintenance efficiency with advanced analytics
Alstom uses advanced analytics to improve maintenance efficiency, and constantly improves the performance and level of automation of our analytics. We provide reliable information on the current and future condition of rail assets through Artificial Intelligence (AI), railway engineering knowledge, and data scientist expertise. We turn diagnostic events into actionable alerts, enable condition monitoring, and anticipate failures with predictive analytics. This leads to better performing rail assets by enabling faster troubleshooting and repairs, reducing over maintenance, and eliminating downtime.

Harnessing smart data acquisition devices for automated inspections
Alstom provides automated inspection using smart data acquisition devices to monitor the condition of rail assets to improve reliability and availability and reduce maintenance costs. We use various devices depending on inspection needs, including TrainScanner™, Alstom’s solution for automatic train check-ups, InfraScanner for rail infrastructure, smart sensors, test benches and data interfaces. All related asset information from different data sources is consolidated into HealthHub™, where it can be analysed, and if there are faults, maintenance activities can be planned and executed.
Digitalisation for a seamless passenger experience
Digitalising the passenger experience is key to encouraging more people to choose rail over roads. With Alstom’s digital solutions for passenger experience, journeys onboard the train are more enjoyable, comfortable and safe for passengers. We offer dynamic passenger information systems to guide passengers in real-time from A to B, passenger entertainment systems with the latest technological advancements, and passenger security solutions including smart CCTV, streaming, and analytics.
