RAILWAY & UNDERGROUND SECURITY AND SIGNALLING: Engineering, Safety, RAMS

BEVAC has specialised in railway & underground security and signalling since its foundation in 1964.
It acts as advisory engineer to several public transport companies, undertaking design studies, drafting the technical and functional requirements, and providing project follow-up and technical and operational assistance during commissioning.

In 1982, BEVAC developed its own software tool, SIGNAC®, capable of simulating the movements of rail vehicles based on their characteristics and those of the chosen network. This software tool allows the user to determine and verify the positioning of signalling, to calculate travel times and to predict energy consumption.

Thanks to its knowledge of the CENELEC 50126 and related standards, BEVAC can offer its clients the expertise and independence to meet their required security objectives and the optimal availability and maintenability of installations that are perfectly integrated into their operating environment (RAMS, procedures for operations and maintenance).
