In 2009, Bombardier Transportation Systems Division ("Bombardier") embarked on a development project that was initially designated as the "APM Platform Convergence" project, later to become known as the INNOVIA APM 300 project. The challenge from division management was to look at our two existing Automated Peoplemover (APM) platforms, namely the CX 100 and Innovia systems, and determine if the platforms could be combined to maximize synergy, improve performance and reduce overall system cost. Product management principles were employed in comparing the two platforms. It was desired to maintain the cost saving design aspects of the Innovia platform, while also providing the ability to introduce new technology to our existing CX-100 customers and not void their wayside infrastructure. The work over the last three years has culminated in the development of the INNOVIA APM 300 vehicle platform. This paper summarizes the key development efforts of this new platform, and compares its performance and design features to previous Bombardier APM platforms.
