PUPIL is an innovative track geometry assessment tool from Ricardo to help ensure safe and reliable track conditions are maintained on the world's railways.

By analysing geometric data captured by track measurement vehicles – including level, alignment, cant, twist, curve radius etc. – PUPIL can pinpoint locations on track sections where the track alignment is approaching, or is already exceeding, the safety limit.

Our teams offer expertise through every step of the procurement process, ensuring your requirements are communicated to the market and final products meet your expectations.

Over a process that can take several years to complete, we provide continuity from opening consultations through to supplier negotiation, design and test review, quality assessment and eventual acceptance. In territories where it is required, we will also be present to confirm the vehicle procurement process is in full compliance with EU processes.

From conventional mainline to light rail, we provide a wide range of services focused squarely on managing the complex interfaces between rolling stock and infrastructure.
