I think it's a giant leap in the right direction. Trying to manage a bogie repair from wash to final inspection with paper is an absolute nightmare — there's so many things can go wrong, so many signatures can get missed. With the new wraps we're able to monitor from every stage in the repair remotely, where it's been done, where it's not been signed off. It's a fantastic inception which I think is going to improve the bogie repair no end!

From specification to compliance pack
Watch SmartFleet turn a written specification into a working overhaul system: job definitions linked to their specification pages, sign-offs on the shop floor, arising work decided on line, and a signed compliance pack at the end.

Our AI Vision and Mission
We believe AI will change how trains are maintained, and that the operators who capture their work as it is done will gain the most from it. Our interest starts with the railway, not the technology: safer, more reliable trains, maintained by engineers whose knowledge counts for more.
The best future for rail
A railway where every measurement taken on a train is kept, comparable and seen by everyone responsible for it. A fault found in one depot is checked across every fleet within days. Inspection intervals are set by evidence, not the calendar. The next overhaul is priced from the real times of the last.
The root-node problems
Some problems, once solved, unlock many others. In rail maintenance we see four, and a SmartFleet solution aimed at each:
Each client's records are kept in their own access-controlled workspace. What we learn in method, the wraps, scenario banks and agents, improves every client's system.
Three levels of guidance
We use AI where a task needs judgement, and keep fixed, checkable logic wherever the answer can be calculated. More on the three levels
Level 1
Scenario bank
Standard professional comments for routine inspections; an AI agent adds new scenarios as new observations arise.
Expert review: not needed
Level 2
Workflow wrap
Step-by-step procedures with built-in calculations and decision trees, such as a brake pad's remaining life.
Expert review: recommended
Level 3
AI agent
A specialist agent for complex judgement, such as an ORR CSM risk assessment, drafting the analysis and narrative.
Expert review: mandatory
Our AI agents
Optimistic and careful
On the railway a competent person signs for the work, and that will not change. Our tools advise, people decide, and the record shows who decided what.
The future of rail maintenance is not written yet. We would rather build it with the engineers who keep the trains running, and we would rather show you than argue the case: bring us your specification and we will show you your own work running on SmartFleet.
