The RailwayCare Inspection LifeCycle
Turning inspection data into reliable decisions for safe and efficient railway operations.
01
Inspection Initiation
Inspection activities are initiated based on scheduled plans, condition-based triggers, or specific operational events to ensure timely and targeted assessment.
02
Plan Formulation
Inspection plans are defined with clear objectives, scope, and acceptance criteria, ensuring the right technologies, tools, and personnel are deployed for each task.
03
Inspection Execution
Inspection execution follows standardized procedures using onboard and field-based technologies to ensure accurate, complete, and traceable data collection.
04
Analysis Record
This stage transforms raw inspection data into actionable insights through professional analysis, structured reporting, and long-term digital record management.

RailwayCare Inspection Lifecycle
Scheduled Initiation
Strictly adheres to established maintenance schedules and periodic plans, ensuring disciplined preventive asset upkeep.
Condition-based Initiation
Triggered by real-time monitoring data (e.g., inspection vehicle exceedances, sensor alerts) for precise intervention.
Post-event Initiation
Immediately launches specialized inspections following maintenance work, extreme weather, incidents, or abnormal patrol findings.
Translates the initiation directive into an executable blueprint.
Objective & Scope Definition
Defines specific track sections, key metrics, acceptance criteria, and expected deliverables.
Tech & Tools Selection
Matches the most suitable inspection equipment, technology combinations (e.g., ultrasound vision), and expert teams.
Confirm Safe Work Period
Coordinate with other departments and teams to confirm the safe work period, and develop detailed on-site operating procedures, safety protocols, and contingency plans.
Track Geometry Measurement
This involves the precise measurement of key parameters like gauge, alignment, and profile to ensure track smoothness, safety, and ride quality.
Rail Flaw Detection
It employs non-destructive technologies like ultrasound to identify hidden internal flaws such as cracks, preventing critical rail failures.
Rail Surface and Visual Defect Inspection
This inspection identifies surface defects like wear and spalling to assess immediate rail condition and guide routine maintenance.
Turnout Inspection
A specialized examination of critical components like switches and frogs, ensuring proper geometry and fit for safe operation and transition.
- In-depth processing, professional analysis, and structured archiving of collected data. This is the core step of transforming ‘data’ into ‘information’ and ‘knowledge’, generating insights and reports to guide maintenance actions, and creating traceable, mineable digital assets.
