Illustrative subsystem flow · Not fire or homologation certification.
Configurable components. Project quotations.
A railway component quote combines subsystems, variants, materials and interfaces. Mercura keeps commercial configuration aligned with the rules you publish.
-
01
Subsystem family
Interior, door, HVAC or other modules you supply.
-
02
Variants and dimensions
Customer-specific options within ranges you publish.
-
03
Materials and interfaces
Approved materials and mechanical or electrical interfaces you model.
-
04
Project quote
Commercial output for the configured assembly.
Keep sales within your approved product catalogue.
Mercura applies approved materials, weights you load and interfaces you define. It does not certify EN 45545 or railway homologation.
- Dimensions
- Width, height and depth within published ranges.
- Materials
- Only finishes and compounds you mark as compatible.
- Interfaces
- Required mechanical or electrical interfaces for the subsystem.
What Mercura does not certify for railway components
Commercial configuration is not homologation or fire certification.
-
Not EN fire certification
Mercura does not certify EN 45545 or fire-smoke compliance on its own.
-
Not crashworthiness
It does not perform structural or crashworthiness assessment.
-
Can enforce your rules
Material lists, weights you assign and interfaces follow rules you maintain.
From subsystem selection to a consistent quotation.
- 01 Select subsystem family (interior, door, HVAC…).
- 02 Enter project dimensions or variant band.
- 03 Choose approved materials and finish options.
- 04 Add required interfaces and mandatory accessories.
- 05 Apply configured commercial pricing.
- 06 Prepare quotation documents.
Complex railway projects, one controlled configuration path
Manual project quotes
- Options quoted without rolled-up weight you publish.
- Materials outside the project list slip through.
- Interfaces confirmed in a later engineering review.
- Spares maintained in a separate spreadsheet.
With Mercura CPQ
- Options include weights you load in the model.
- Materials blocked when not on the project list.
- Interfaces part of the configured subsystem.
- Spares can roll up from the same configuration.
Bring consistency to complex railway component sales.
- Selections aligned with the approved catalogue.
- Fewer incompatible material and variant combinations.
- Required interfaces visible before the offer is sent.
- More structured project quotations.
- Less manual checking of routine rules.
- Clearer hand-off of configuration to operations.

Questions from railway component manufacturers
Can Mercura configure rolling stock subsystems with many variants?
Yes, when you model subsystem families, variants, materials and interfaces in the product catalogue used for quoting.
Can customer-specific requirements be captured in the quote?
Yes, when parametric options, constraints and approval paths are part of the product model you publish.
Does Mercura certify fire safety or railway homologation?
No. Mercura applies manufacturer-defined product rules. Engineering and compliance remain your responsibility.
Can Mercura integrate with ERP or PLM?
Mercura supports integrations depending on your implementation. Commercial configuration can flow to downstream systems.
