RA Engineering - Balfour Beatty Rail

Objectives of RA EngineeringRAMS stands for:For the construction, expansion and renewal of railelectrification equipment and systems, information onthe subjects reliability, availability, maintainability andsafety for the respective planned technical implementationis required.The primary objective of RA Engineering is to distinguish,evaluate and optimise the reliability and availability ofour products and systems at preset skeleton conditionsby means of characteristic data, to monitor and illustratethe maintainability of our components and equipmentand to recognize and avoid potential safety risks alreadyduring the engineering of our equipment.ReliabilityThe probability of a unit to fulfil the requiredfunction under preset conditions within a presetperiod of time.AvailabilityThe ability of a product to be in a certain state inwhich it may fulfil a required function under presetconditions at a preset time or during a preset periodof time on condition that the required externalresources are at disposal.MaintainabilityThe ability of a unit to be maintained in or restoredto a certain state in which it is able to fulfil therequired function under preset conditions of use,provided that the maintenance is performed underpreset conditions by means of preset proceduresand resources.SafetyThe absence of an inadmissible risk of damage.The RA Engineering is integral part of each projecthandling, thus, contributing to easy operation andmaintainability of the equipment, a trouble-freeoperation and longevity.Demanding tests guaranteethe required properties02
