Abstract

A vast volume of documentation was generated by the £3 billion electrification of the Great Western railway in the UK. It was therefore critical to have early agreed requirements and well-configured information management systems, automation and visualisation to control and manage documentation effectively. Displaying the right information at the right time to the right people gave the programme team full control to make informed decisions, as well as ensuring correct instructions were given to the supply chain. This paper presents some challenges faced by the programme regarding data and information management, and the solutions developed to resolve them. These ranged from better application of available systems and processes to the development of visualisation tools and automation to accelerate the final stages of the programme.
