Solution Description
As an element of the leogistics digital supply chain (d.s.c.), the leogistics RAIL solution takes over the planning, execution, invoicing and evaluation of rail-bound transports. The leogistics rail solution is a holistic process solution based on SAP technology for your individual railway operation and covers shunting movements in stations and sidings as well as train movements on open lines.
By combining desktop applications for office employees and work instructions on mobile devices for the crew on the track, the communication flow is digitalized. The dispatching interfaces in the system are based on best-practice examples in the industry, in which operational and railway law regulations are incorporated. The included rotation planning for the company's own wagon and traction vehicle fleet guarantees an optimal use of resources.
As an SAP add-on, the leogistics RAIL Solution can be seamlessly integrated with all SAP systems - integration with railway companies and other service providers is standardized. The preconfigured process landscape reduces the implementation time to 12 weeks!
