Seamless cooperation with the loading points and the customers! Transparent invoicing and documentation! Meaningful management information available at all times! Economic implementation and faster return-on-investment! A future-oriented solution The cost and efficiency pressures that exist in rail freight services are greater now than at any time before. A constantly increasing amount of traffic today needs to be managed and dealt with reliably, fast and cost-efficiently without any additional personnel and locomotives being required. A gigantic task! Customers, dispatchers and shunters all require secure access to the current process data at the same time in order that optimum operating procedures can be ensured. A perfect information network is required for this purpose. Precise documentation detailing the individual services is required in order to invoice the services provided in a transparent and resource-related manner. When you choose the logistics software for the shunting traffic from ZEDAS, you are choosing a highly-efficient and economic solution, which is absolutely fu- ture oriented thanks to its consistent further development in conjunction with its update service. In order to store the data, the ORACLE® database is used. For flexible analyses, a report system (SAP® Business Objects XI) has been inte- grated. For you as user, this means that you can benefit from all the advantages offered by a global leading manufacturer such as, for example, high capacity, investment security, performance as well as long-term support and assistance. We ensure that all processes can be seamlessly interlinked, which significantly reduces the amount of administration required. When you choose our branch solution zedas®cargo, this will allow you to plan, monitor and document the shunting traffic more quickly, more transparently and more efficiently. 3The logistics software for shunting traffic Process overview shunting traffic Planning Operation Invoicing Data & Messages (inbound/ outbound) Takeover & train splitting DeliveryLoading / Unloading Pick-up Shipping and train composition 4Simply well planned The basis of successful shunting traffic operations is optimum resource planning. The amount of locomotives and personnel that will be required needs to be exactly planned and coordinated. A solid shift plan is everything. Using zedas®cargo for the shunting traffic allows you to integrate all rules and legal stipulations for example, laws relating to working times and collective bargain- ing agreements, into the planning process. The suitability, qualifications and the authorisations of the personnel can also be perfectly integrated into the planning process. With our flexible software for the shunting logis- tics, the actual working times can be recorded on a tablet or at the work station and assigned to customer transport orders and working time accounts. Existing interfaces to finance and pay- roll accounting make precise transport order and payroll accounting possible. 5The logistics software for shunting traffic ZEDAS optimises your operational procedures Our branch software zedas®cargo is a tried-and-tested tool at your disposal to design your operating procedures in such a fashion that all processes are optimally interwoven. You will always have an overview of arriving and departing trains, shunting movements, loading point operations, change-over processes, track occupancy, as well as all parameters of an efficient shunting, and thus be able to optimally control the procedures. The dispatcher has all information at its disposal for an effective and secure resource planning. Information in relation to order status, carriage location, sequence, carriage status, loaded goods and technical details is always provided. Thanks to a high level of automation, the dispatcher is furthermore relieved of the time-consuming routine work. That saves both time and money. 6Made-to-measure flexibility Plan deviations are a daily occurrence in the shunting business. With zedas®cargo, you can react flexibly at all times to new situations in the shunting traffic operations. In the event of changes to the operating schedule or to delays, you will have the possibility to quickly implement alternatives. All processes and procedures are transparently documented and registered of course. 7The logistics software for shunting traffic Process improvements thanks to mobile solutions Thanks to mobile applications, business processes can be better planned and organised because employees can access all relevant information everywhere and at any time. As a result, time and correspondingly cost-intensive agreements can be avoided. Whether drivers, carriage technicians or control personnel – each user can act independently on-site. This ensures that a constantly updated flow of information and data is available. Efficient work procedures are ensured because all employees have permanent access to invoice-relevant process data. Train arrivals and departures, shunting orders and damaged carriages can be processed directly on-site on the rail track. Job-order and vehicle parameters and the current track occupancy can be retrieved at any time. Our platform-neutral web technologies can also be used when off-line and this allows autarchic working without a permanent data connection being required. 8Getting data communication on the perfect track In order to guarantee safe and effective process procedures, we have automated the exchange of data between those involved in the process via suitable interfaces. With this step, we want to minimise all manual procedures and accelerate the processes. Examples of customer interfaces are: 9The logistics software for shunting traffic Next >
