RAM / LCC

RAM / LCC is becoming more and more important in larger railway tenders, becoming one of the decisive factors in the awarding of contracts. Not achieving agreed RAM / LCC data is often contractually highly penalised. It’s a fact that often small or medium-sized companies have nothing to set against the expertise of Bombardier, Siemens or Alstom.

All the system integrators have hired high-profile experts long time ago, to hedge the risk to their own customers or to ensure that a large part of their risk is fairly passed on to their suppliers. Those who are not really paying attention to RAM / LCC already in the contract negotiations or underestimate the topic of RAM / LCC during the development phase could end up facing extremely high failure costs.
