What this is

The buyer (a rail body, London) is procuring the TOPS and POIS Replacement Project to replace the in-use functionality of two mission-critical rail operations systems with a modern technology solution, avoiding technical debt, operational risk and extended support agreements. TOPS is a 1970s mainframe system for the management and control of freight vehicles and trains (real-time whereabouts, loading, consignee, condition), expanded over time to handle locomotive activities and loco-hauled passenger operations via the POIS sub-system. Current average freight traffic is 500 trains per day.

Key points
