The company has adopted and is implementing a Program for the development of marshalling yards of JSC “Russian Railways” until 2025. This is a strategic document defining a ten-year perspective and targets for the development of traffic volumes, the stages of modernization of pre-node stations, the transition from the information regime of automated systems to the development of control solutions.
Today, the network loads and unloads more than 100 thousand wagons every day. Everything connected with the provision of loading and unloading, with the planning of cargo transportation, is included in the range of priority tasks to improve the operation of the station complex. It is very important here that the stations become a single center of responsibility for the quality of these processes, for effective interaction with shippers on the ground. And this approach will be implemented in stages.
All the tasks that Russian Railways Holding solves in the field of technology should be focused on the needs of the client, ensuring the competitiveness and quality of our services.
The logistics companies that are part of the holding actively develop comprehensive services, provide the organization of intermodal transportation not only in the Russian, but also in the international transport market. Together with the Center for Branded Transport Services, these companies carry out purposeful work to create a comfortable technological environment for shippers through coordination of interaction, reduction of paperwork, creation of a CRM system, cataloging of services. This year, the number of documents that a client needs to issue in order to access transportation services has decreased from several dozen to four.
The evaluation of the work by the largest community of customers – passengers, of course, is especially important for the company. JSC “Russian Railways” conducts comprehensive work to improve passenger service.
The railway stations have also changed qualitatively – today they increasingly meet the requirements of the time, and this work continues.
It is possible to interest a passenger in railway transport services, first of all, strictly observing the timetable.
It must be remembered that the development of the transportation management process requires new approaches to work with huge information flows.
At the present stage, information technologies have already provided a significant qualitative step in management, but their potential is far from being exhausted. A new requirement for information systems is the economic assessment of decisions made.
Thanks to the “AS-Model” system, for the first time, an integrated approach to the formation of the optimal option for passing trains based on a comparison of the cost of infrastructure sections has been provided. Within the framework of this development, planning tasks are solved, both long – term (capital investments) and short-term – for technological aspects of operational work in the form of an optimal, cost-calculated plan for passing car traffic through the network.
And of course, the development of technology is impossible without modern information management systems. A special place among such projects of the company is occupied by the “Unified intelligent control system and automation of production processes in railway transport – ISUZHT”. The main purpose of its creation is to increase the economic efficiency of the Russian Railways holding through the implementation of coordinated management and a unified information model describing end-to-end production processes. The essence of the project is to create an automated decision support center that allows you to manage production processes in real time, planning, modeling and predicting the development of situations in general.
