InRail is a private rail freight operator running around 150 trains per week across Italy, Slovenia and Croatia. With a registered office in Genoa, operational offices in Udine, Nova Gorica and Zagreb, and more than 230 employees, it covers train driving, technical verification and personnel training. A multilingual operations room coordinates traffic with railway networks, customers and suppliers. Working across three countries and many functions, InRail needs data that every area reads the same way. Which is why SoftRail BI brings together information from LogiShift, SkillPlan and MainTrack.
SoftRail BI integrates all the software in the SoftRail suite, so different management flows can be read together through detailed reporting, interactive graphs and customisable KPIs. After a testing phase, InRail identified the key reports and business processes the tool can support and automate, and is now building a production dashboard for each area to collect its main KPIs.
Each operational area now works with the same performance targets. In the Maintenance Department, dashboards monitor the maintenance cycle of wagons and help analyse and reduce vehicle downtime in stations. The next step is dedicated dashboards that InRail can open to customers and suppliers.
The full case study covers how InRail and Binary System have worked together since the early days of Italian rail freight liberalisation, how the BI tool was tested, and how KPIs are shared between functions. Download it to see the details behind the results.
“We were looking for a software solution that could support us in measuring and analysing internal targets, and also sharing them with suppliers and customers. With Binary System, we found it.”
