Track Management System
TMS
Challenges
Migration of Track Assets Management and Inspections from manual to electronic system.
To integrate Track Assets Management with other Asset management platforms of Indian Railways.
A single platform for Stores Management of all Inventory holding units across Indian Railways.
IOT enabled Real Time data collection and analysis for Track and Bridge health monitoring.
A challenging task of designing a system for overall management, inspections recording and proactive track and related
assets maintenance in order to improve Track assets reliability.

1/12

Improvisation in Data collection mechanisms through digitalization of Track Assets and its maintenance records.
To eliminate the physical inspection registers through online recording & availability of all relevant information.
To automate data validation and verification processes thereby improving quality of Inspection.
Predictive and prioritized Asset Maintenance based on inspection results and asset codal life.
Being a customized Track Assets Management tool, Track Management System is a single point destination for all needs of
Track Assets information and maintenance.
Our Solution
TMS includes various assets and miscellaneous masters,
inspection and progress entry options to capture data from
various users on different levels.

TMS deals with two types of Inspections (Direct &
Indirect). Direct inspections cover Push Trolley/Motor
Trolley Inspection, LWR, Points & Crossing etc. Indirect
inspections are done through various kinds of machines
like OMS(Oscillation Monitoring System), TRC (Track
Recording Cars), Rear Vehicle/Foot Plate Inspection and
USFD (Ultrasonic flaw detection) etc.
Inspection Module
Track Diagram is a pictorial depiction of track structure
data such as Rails, Sleepers, Ballast, Fastenings, Bridges,
Tunnels, Curves etc. Apart from track structure details,
Track diagram also shows the following details which are
critical for making any decision:
• PSR (Permanent Speed Restriction)
• Track Machine Deployment
• Fracture Details
• USFD (Ultrasonic Flaw Detection) defects
• Traffic Density (Yearly GMT)
• Track Geometry Index (TGI) as recorded by TRC
Machines

Stores related to P-Way maintenance are spread all over
and keeping track, optimum utilization and proper
inventory management is very difficult. Normally periodic
returns are in backlog. Balancing of excess and shortfall of
materials at two places is difficult due to lack of centralized
information. Putting all store management on IT enabled
platform has emerged as only solution. Inventory holding
units numbering almost 3000 all over the country are
linked at one platform. This will enable optimization,
balancing of inventory and disposal of scrap.

Fracture analysis module is decision support related as it
shows number of fractures based on various parameters
This gives immense flexibility to take decisions. Apart from
this, facility has been provided to compare fracture results
with previous dates so that historical analysis can also be
done.
Fracture Analysis
TMS application integrates with IOT devices to capture
correct and real time data. There are various Track
parameters like: a) Alignment b) Twist c) Gauge d)
Unevenness 
e) 
TGI 
(Track 
Geometry 
Index).TRC
Machines capture track parameters and send to TMS
application.
Track Recording Car
(TRC)
Through this module, Analysis report for level crossing
analysis can be generated for due overhauling on any
specified date. Hence planning can be done in advance so
that operating condition of every single level crossing can
be maintained.
