Le Technicentre de Paris Austerlitz utilise à ce jour, un locotracteur Y5000 pour effectuer les manoeuvres des matériels ferroviaires, afin de réaliser les différentes opérations de maintenance dont il a la charge. Ce locotracteur est très vétuste, énergivore et peu fiable ce qui engendre des coûts d’exploitation et de maintenance très élevés. De ce fait, le Technicentre envisage d’acquérir un nouveau moyen autonome de déplacement de rames (y compris locomotive) nommé « LOCMA » dans le présent CDC, afin de limiter son impact environnemental, de réduire ses coûts énergétiques, de sécuriser sa production et d’améliorer la qualité de vie au travail de ses agents.
