ACTIA has secured its first rail contract in the United States in partnership with Alstom. To fulfill the regulatory conditions required for project execution, the group established a localized industrial framework enabling equipment manufacturing on U.S. soil in compliance with the Buy America Act.
Fleet Modernization and Operational Scope
Under the agreement, ACTIA will supply onboard equipment for a new generation of rail rolling stock designated for the North American market. The project forms part of a multi-car modernization initiative directed by NJ TRANSIT, one of the largest public transit operators in the United States. Covering several hundred rail cars, the program is structured to expand passenger capacity, enhance operational reliability, and address growing transit demand across the New Jersey rail network.
Onboard Passenger Information and Video Surveillance
The technical deployment centers on integrated onboard passenger information systems alongside dedicated video surveillance hardware. Key capabilities delivered through the system architecture include:

The technical deployment centers on integrated onboard passenger information systems alongside dedicated video surveillance hardware. Key capabilities delivered through the system architecture include:
- Segmented, high-precision onboard audio and visual passenger alerts.
- Real-time transit and operational information displays.
- Streamlined system management and diagnostic workflows for operating and maintenance teams.
System Integration and Scalability
The engineering scope involved adapting ACTIA's technology platforms to meet specific U.S. rail standards, functional requirements, and legacy onboard environments. The architecture incorporates re-engineered equipment packaging and custom software capabilities to deliver scalable, configurable controls designed for long-term operational reliability and simplified maintenance.
