A wayside friction management system, and method for monitoring and controlling a wayside friction management system is described. The system comprises one or more wayside device for mounting on a track of a rail system and configured to apply, through a delivery system, a friction control media onto a track. The wayside device further comprises one or more data collection module configured to collect and transmit data to a remote performance unit. The transmitted data is compared to reference values, and adjustments are made to the friction control media dispensing parameters, for example pump time, as required per the comparison. The data at least comprises measurements of the internal voltage of the delivery system. The wayside device may comprise a power source operatively connected to one or more components of the wayside device.
