When you are looking at an asset on your network, what is the most important thing to you? Is it knowing when it was installed, what technology is used within the asset or its upcoming maintenance costs? This is where connected asset data can be of assistance.
The big thing that is often overlooked when looking at assets is any connections and relationships it has with another asset, but what if you could view an asset, all of the important information and see all of the related and connected assets?
That’s where our rail software platform comes in!
Rail Projects With Connected Asset Data
Using Rail BI, you can get a full understanding of not only the assets that you are looking to complete maintenance on but anything that they have a relationship with too.
No longer do you need to look at different datasets to find what may be connected to other assets, by viewing your asset data in our Rail BI platform you can see all of this without having to spend hours searching for it.
Visual Datasets For Connected Assets – Get The Complete Picture
Going one step further, you can use our maps to visualise your complete planning scenario on a fully interactive geographical map. See where specific assets exist in different locations within the network and how they will change over time (based on any planned work in the area.
By seeing how the network changes over time, you get the best idea of how your planned maintenance or new technology rollout will affect any other assets with connections to the work you are planning and you can make changes from there.
Cost Estimations From Your Plans Without The Hassle
Once you have made the decision on what you are planning to do, create beautifully detailed cost estimation reports. Estimate direct (and indirect) costs for your full project and save them to reuse for similar projects in future or simply to create a second scenario with different options to see which fit better with the work being completed in the wider geographic area.
Use the same dataset between reports with our data warehouse and when your data changes for one report the second is automatically updated at the same time so you can be sure you are making accurate decisions on which scenario is the best for the work you are looking to complete.
Furthermore, by using our report builder you can create meaningful reports with only the information that you want (including tables, graphs, maps and much more) so your comparisons can be done without wading through a sea of unrequired information.
Using business intelligence tools (such as our rail planning software platform) gives you the confidence to make better decisions, view asset and technology relationships in real time and enhance productivity and efficiency. We can help you get the best results and the correct information every time.
