DEDHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Recent ARC Advisory Group research on both the rail asset management and rail signaling markets reveals that the industry has been continuously improving its technology and strategies in both these areas to improve safety, increase rail capacity, and obtain greatest overall lifetime value for rail assets. “In the asset-intensive rail industry facing significant consolidation among suppliers, effective asset management is key for maintaining assets, comprehending risks and expenditures over the asset lifecycle, ensuring safety and reliability, and earning a high return on investments for the public-private partnerships that, increasingly, are the stakeholders,” said Pranav Misal, ARC Analyst and the key author of ARC’s Rail Asset Management Global Market Research and Rail Signaling and Train Control Market Research reports.

“Emerging digitally-enabled technologies such as the Industrial IoT, wireless networking, analytics, and machine learning are disrupting both legacy rail signaling approaches and asset management strategies of the rail operators and suppliers alike. Rail operators should make every effort to leverage this innovation to improve performance and utilization of critical rail infrastructure,” continued Misal.
