Rail Industry Component:
Rail Radar Inc.: Life Cycle Cost Analysis

Rail Radar Inc.

Rail Radar™ says its Life Cycle Cost Analysis (LCCA) is designed to ensure the best decision-making to achieve the greatest cost efficiency for maintenance, future repairs or rehabilitation. Rail Radar's LCCA process is designed to evaluate all associated costs for each alternative over the economic life to determine specific costs for each option and then equate them through a series of computerized assessments. In order to achieve this, Rail Radar conducts detailed and accurate linearly and spatially referenced analysis of in-situ track infrastructure conditions — separately for ballast and tie components of the rail structure. Rail Radar directly integrates with client rail operations/maintenance systems.
