Software Development

Development of different software programs:

Dispo - Optimization of vehicle circulation planning
Efficient scheduling can significantly reduce both material resources and personnel costs. The Dispo software supports you as a transport company in vehicle scheduling and optimisation. The graphically oriented software is easy to use and offers you fast results in the planning of vehicle rotations. Thus, Dispo supports both transport companies and vehicle manufacturers to quickly generate a reliable basis for tenders for local transport services.
Dispo-IRM - Disposition solutions after malfunctions
Dispo‐IRM (Incident Recovery Management) bietet systematische Dispositionslösungen an, um nach einer Betriebsstörung bei Stadtschnellbahnsystemen durch eine optimierte Rückführung eine planmäßige Betriebsabwicklung wiederherzustellen.
Hierzu generiert die Software aus den Soll‐Fahrplandaten (z. B. IT-Systemen der RailSys® Software von der RMCon International GmbH) und der aktuellen Ist‐Betriebslage Dispositionsempfehlungen, die den Fahrdienstleiter bei der Wiederherstellung des Soll‐Betriebsablaufes unterstützen.
DWS - Digital switch sketch
The program DWS - Digitale Weichenskizze is our contribution to the digitization of the ordering process for switches, crossings, crossing switches, rail extensions and switches for shoe throwing devices (HAV) according to the DB group guideline 823.0700.

The DWS software maps the entire ordering process from drawing up the sketch to the final dispatch to the turnout plant in one program.
Dynamis - Determine energy-saving driving style
Dynamis maps in detail the vehicle dynamics of train journeys, in the course of which several physical values are calculated - not only the journey time but also, among other things, the energy consumption. In this way, any train movements can be compared with each other according to different points of view and different driving strategies. Dynamis can also be used for limit load considerations and the determination of ideal signal locations.
EcoTransIT - Environmental comparison for freight transport
EcoTransIT World calculates environmental impacts of different transport modes across the world. This is possible due to an intelligent input methodology, large amounts of GIS-data and an elaborate basis of computation. Data and methodology are scientifically funded and transparent for all users.
Nemo - Long-term planning of the rail infrastructure
As part of long-term strategic infrastructure planning, Nemo determines the capacity utilisation of large rail networks that can be expected as a result of the forecast traffic volume for a planned expansion phase. If capacity bottlenecks remain despite the use of alternative train routes, the remaining expansion requirements can be derived from these. The same approach can also be used to assess the effects of temporary capacity constraints due to pending construction measures in order to plan in advance controlling measures such as the diversion of trains to alternative routes in the network.

In order to determine performance characteristics (e.g. train or ton kilometers), real operating data from a previous period can also be entered in Nemo and allocated to the existing network. The results of this actual evaluation support the operators of rail networks in the economic evaluation of routes or sub-networks by comparing the revenues generated per section with the current costs.

By the integrated consideration of network infrastructure, operation and traffic demand in an overall model, the interactions between these three areas are mapped and evaluated.
RailSys – My favourite software at work
The aim of every new version is the improvement of existing functions on the one hand and extensions on the other for the realisation of new use cases. Thus, we optimised the usability of the calendar but also integrated new national signalling systems. We improved the concept of “Driving + Construction” for an optimal construction operation, allowing you to directly receive the impact of your restrictions on the actual timetable when entering the requests. A new dialogue for rolling stock shows the catalogues of resources for traction units and cars. That enables a better selection for a more detailed train composition.
As you can see, we have improved all program elements (Manager) of RailSys to better meet your needs and to keep providing you with a future-oriented support in the planning of rail bound traffic.
Project Management Suite SOG®
With the help of the SOG® program system, you can quickly and efficiently plan an optimum construction sequence for track construction sites. Due to the simple handling and using intelligent calculation methods of SOG® you are able to create different construction sequence variants for the track construction site to be planned in a short time and to determine the most time- and/or cost-saving planning variant by comparing the variants among each other.

In this way, you can use SOG® to create construction sequence plans in way-time line representation. At the push of a button, SOG® allows you to switch between the display of the path-time line diagram and the display as bar chart diagram, the so-called Gantt chart.

Based on the just created construction sequence plan, SOG® automatically determines the demand for machines, wagons and personnel for you. This can be displayed immediately in the construction progress plan in the lateral columns. On this basis, SOG® enables detailed shift and deployment planning. A cost module integrated in SOG® immediately determines the corresponding costs for the machines and trolleys used as well as for the personnel and the building material used.

Of course, SOG® allows you to export relevant construction site data to industry-specific software products and standard applications via open interfaces.

SOG® optimally supports you in the many different phases of the construction process planning of track construction sites:

Creation of framework construction schedules for tenders
Rough planning for feasibility studies
Determination of the blocking period requirement
Preparation of documents for the submission of tenders
Planning of the optimal use of specified pause periods
Planning of machine, wagon and personnel deployments
Ad-hoc planning on the construction site

Even during construction work, SOG® allows you to document construction progress on the basis of target/actual comparisons and provides the option of detailed construction site documentation.

Last but not least, the planning documents and site documentation created with SOG® are a valuable basis for site accounting and the justification of supplementary claims.
