• capture the customer architectural requirements
• capture all the internal and external interfaces of the IXL system
• capture the complexity of the yard layouts to be managed by the IXL system
• capture the environmental/climatic installation conditions of the IXL system
• identify the trackside equipment to be controlled and detected and the application conditions related to the trackside engineering
• identify the migration needs to be satisfied by the IXL solution (in case of brown-field project)
• evaluate the space constraints for the installation of the pre-fitted configurations of the IXL solution
• take into account the work methods constraints for the installation of the pre-fitted configurations of the IXL solution
• capture the IXL product application conditions
