GMAO GMAO With CMMS (Computerised Maintenance Management System)

Network maintenance operations can be scheduled in advance through a combination of CMMS and connected objects. Incipient events and needs are predicted so that parts can be replaced before they have time to fail.

With the digital twin

A 3D model of the network based on BIM (Building Information Modelling) parts of the system work together and how the contributions of the different technical specialities interact.

… and, for SNCF Réseau, a constant investment target and long-term commitment.

Innovation requires continual benchmarking and research. For SNCF Réseau, it represents a state of mind, as attested by its presence at Viva Tech in June 2018.

With the AIR programme

Innovation means requires benchmarking and research. At SNCF Réseau this means working hand in hand with partners, i.e. a whole ecosystem of start-ups and major groups.
