Alstom has partnered with global technology company CoSMo to develop a new application that would improve the efficiency of rail systems.

Based on CoSMo’s software platform, the new application will leverage Alstom’s experience in rail operations. The partnership will also utilise CoSMo’s background in asset investment optimisation and decision management. Once launched, the new system is intended to benefit rail system owners and infrastructure managers worldwide.

Alstom intends to design better transport networks and meet higher performance and service quality standards using the new application.
