What is the CEPM Project?

Comprehensive Equipment Performance Monitoring

Component Tracking

Use of Component Barcodes and UMLER Expansion

(including mileage)

CEPM Task Force

CEPM Project Deliverables are being developed in

coordination with representatives from across the Industry;

• Equipment Owners

• Shops

• Repair Shops

• Manufacturers

• Railroads

• Software Providers

• Industry Committees

• TTCI

Implementation via AAR Circular Process

History of Industry Equipment Information

For over 50 years, industry tracking of owner reported

equipment characteristics was accomplished via the

legacy Umler System.

In 2009, Railinc, in coordination with the industry,

re-designed Umler to create a new platform that could

support increasing requirements for tracking and

communicating equipment level information.

CEPM - Extension of UMLER to expand Component Details

Expanding Equipment Information Details

The industry has taken another step in a multi-year program to

track more detailed information.

Manufacturer, Shop, and other critical reported details will

support safety, operations, planning, and performance

analysis.

Critical components, Dynamic/Wayside, Machine Vision

CEPM Component Tracking Objectives

• Support Recall of Components identified with safety

issues – EW/MA process

• E.g. Wheels, Castings, Brake Valves

• Support equipment owners with details of

components on their equipment

• Capability to track performance of components

related to component life, failure rates, and

history of the components.

Automation, Prioritization, Optimization

Efficient Recall is a major benefit

Railinc will maintain a central database of Component details

and the association of those components to equipment.

Combined with derailment history and component details and

history, safety and defect trends can be more quickly

identified.

Benefits

1. Reduce time between issue id and recall ↑Safety

2. Provide more targeted recalls ↓Cost

3. Design and Quality of components ↑Safety + ↓Cost

Performance Measurement is a major benefit

Knuckles, Couplers

Side Frames, Bolsters, Truck Type

Braking System Components

Industry Requirements Set Forth

• Establish industry rules and standards for reporting component

details and application to equipment

• Develop a re-usable framework that can support the entire list

of priorities for tracking: wheelsets, castings, valves, PTC, GPS

devices, brakes, cushioning, traction motors, etc.

• Maintain Confidentiality of reported data dictated by possession

• Support Bar Code and RFID standards

• Automation, data integrity, inventory management

CID Definition

AAR Component ID (CID) – e.g. ABCD1234567890

Combination of:

#1) AAR Component ID Company Code - Code

assigned by AAR/Railinc which identifies the parent

company

#2) AAR Component ID Number - The number used in

union with the AAR Component ID Company Code for

the purpose of creating a unique identification of the

component or assembly. This number is generated

and assigned by the Parent Company in #1.

**CID is used as the KEY to store and retrieve all detail**

CID = Standard, Unique ID methodology for any and all components

CID Example

Parent Company = ABCD makes wheels and castings

ABCD Wheel Mfg = WWWW

ABCD Castings Mfg = CCCC

Parent Company = DEFG makes wheelsets and castings

DEFG Wheel Shop1 = WSWS

DEFG Wheel Shop2 = SSSS

DEFG Castings Mfg = KKKK

Wheel Casting

Serial Number 123456 A1A2A3

CID ABCD 0000000123 ABCD 9000000123

Wheelset1 Wheelset2 Casting

Serial Number K1K2K3

CID DEFG 0000000123 DEFG 0000000124 DEFG 000000125

Bar Codes, RFID primer

BarCode: 1D BarCode

ABCD1234567890 =

Used for AAR Component Identification, Little Data

BarCode: 2D BarCode or Bar Code Matrix

ABCD1234567890 =

Used for Carrying much data, with redundancy

RFID: Example: AEI

Used for Carrying much data, wireless/remote

Costs, Equipment/Reliability, Longevity – Wheelsets: Survive until application
