Improving Londoners’ commute A Cyient – Thales Signaling collaboration Overview One of the key challenges within the rail ecosystem is the lack of experienced The (LU), a public resources in rail signaling. Due to this metro system which opened in 1863, is the shortage, complex projects like the London world’s oldest underground railway system, Underground require a strong engineering spread across 402 Kms with 270 stations partner who can provide the required and 11 different lines. Over the last decade, support. The JNUP enhancement project it has experienced unprecedented growth had to be executed while ensuring minimal in demand and is running a higher volume disruption to existing traffic. About 45% of of service than ever with over a billion users the program’s network were in tunnels and each year and growing. The continuous normal operations had to be sustained during increase led the LU to plan the Jubilee and the enhancements—challenges that further Upgrade Programme (JNUP). added to the complexity of the program. The JNUP involves the design, procurement and installation of a transmission-based train control (TBTC) system and was implemented Cyient Solution by Thales, in partnership with us. With a 300+ strong signaling team and 200+ Thales develops, manufactures and IRSE-certified engineers, we were able to supplies technology and services to the address this challenge for our partner Thales, UK’s aerospace, defense, security, and supporting the complex upgrade project with transportation sectors. the right resources. To ensure the upgrade was carried out with minimal disruption to The is a French multinational train operations, the testing and installation company with a global workforce of more than works for JNUP were carried out during the 63,000. Headquartered in Neuilly-sur-Seine, night, weekends and Christmas closures. France, the group has an annual turnover of We also supported Thales to meet end- more than USD 14.5 billion. customers’ commissioning schedules across various stages of the project.

By bringing in best practices and installing Thales’s Seltrac S40 system on both mature processes from our vast experience in the lines. rail signaling, our engineers enabled Thales to achieve faster delivery cycles at lower costs, delivering safety-critical designs within strict “Cyient’s engineering expertise and timelines. Through our work, we ensured commitment enabled this safety- minimum disruption of traffic by keeping the critical project to be delivered months existing system operational while the new ahead of the contract date—under- system was being installed and tested. scoring great collaboration and high quality output.

It is a terrific achievement and further Key Business Benefits and Results enhances our relationship. Thank you to the team for their hard work and With our proven expertise in global dedication.” collaborative engineering models, we were able to provide execution across the UK and VP Ground Transportation Systems, Thales India for the JNUP program. This resulted in approximately 35-40% reduction in the total engineering outsourcing cost for Thales. We also provided quick turnaround on key program execution parameters, such as schedule and quality. For example, together benefitted positively with 18% reduction with Thales, we reduced the measured cost in journey time, 20% increase in passenger of quality by 44% in the years 2012-2014 and capacity with 11,500 more commuters per enabled commissioning of the line section hour and an increase to 30 trains per hour in the NMA6 stage six months ahead of during peak times. schedule. More Londoners getting to work on time Additional Value Creation —more sports fans getting to the Olympic Games The moving block system on JNUP allows trains to run closer together, while maintaining During the Olympic Games 2012, the Jubilee required safety margins, thus reducing the line demonstrated its ability to cater to the waiting time between trains and increasing increased traffic and satisfy the public. Many the overall capacity of the lines. This will also commuters expected disruption and delays mean increased revenue production and during the Olympic Games. However, the efficiency. Trains will be able to travel faster, overriding story has been one of pleasantly enabling quicker journey time. surprised Londoners and spectators finding their way around with remarkable ease—one As a result of this upgrade, the London of the most visible, positive outcomes of the Underground and its commuters have upgrade project supported by Cyient.
