RAIL INFRASTRUCTURE

Optimize Operations While Growing Your Network

Today's transportation industries are facing a massive revolution. Rail infrastructure companies are at the forefront of this surge in demand for more sustainable, safe and convenient rail connections. Facing the complex challenge to maintain aging existing infrastructure while modernizing, electrifying and expanding rail infrastructure across urban, high-speed and long distance transportation means there is no room for overly complex, error-prone and non-integrated old practices. To be competitive today and exceed service expectations you need to be in full control to ensure the right employees and machines are in the right place at the right time, always.

    Infrastructure Management Contracting

    DELMIA’s integrated and adaptive planning solution enables you generate plans that take into account the unique challenges railway infrastructure contractors face, such as geography, or last-minute events like bad weather and fragmented work windows. Plan for the long term and then, when circumstances change, make the necessary updates in real time:

    Cope with Market Growth and Demand

    It is critical that you have a transparent planning process that is fully aligned with the needs of the market. You need to be able to cope with the increased number of services requested by passenger and freight operators. This is particularly critical in the highly uncertain freight market where last-minute requests for track availability are common.

    Monitor and Manage Disruptions in Real Time

    You need real-time monitoring and disruption management to be able to roll out scenarios in case of disruptions, assign trains to routes within a railway station, and resolve (or better yet, reduce) disruptions effectively to maintain customer service levels – yours as well as your operators’. A perfect fit for your needs.

    Increase the Involvement of Operating Companies

    Operators require visibility of railway capacity and access to real-time information so that they can effectively respond to disruptions – for instance, to reroute or cancel a service if a track is closed for maintenance.

    Help Operating Companies be Effective

    Operators, both regulated and deregulated, require support from the infrastructure owner to cope with increasing pressure to provide on-time, efficient and predictable transport services.
