functionalities for digital track management and shunting dispatching
Factory railroads naturally form the logistical link between mass-capacity rail transport and a company’s incoming and outgoing goods. In contrast to other modes of transport, rail presents special challenges for logistics processes – but also huge potential for the future. For example, many processes are still carried out by analog means. Yet the field of rail-based logistics offers great opportunities for optimization through digitalization. Against the backdrop of the EU’s ambitious climate targets, it is only a matter of time before the market share of around 18 percent of rail-bound transport in freight traffic continues to grow.
Fully exploit the potential of a digitalized FACTORY RAILROAD
- In cross-border rail freight, the better the different disciplines and players work together, the better the performance.
- Customer satisfaction depends directly on the smooth and integrated interaction of all players. This requires collaboration platforms that offer mature planning algorithms on the one hand and are open and enable simple on- and off-boarding of logistics partners on the other.
- New technologies, mobile applications, but also functions in the area of voice control and assisted reality, which are already marketable in the area of warehouse logistics, for example, are making their way into rail freight transport.
- Innovations such as edge/IoT applications or the use of services based on artificial intelligence, for example, to optimize the sequence of upcoming shunting activities, can create great added value.
- The extraction and use of real-time data currently have a prominent position. But added value is only gained when the information is intelligently linked with process-controlling and commercial data and made available within the logistics solution for rail-bound transport on a role-specific basis.
