MEV Scheiz exceeds expectations with automatic workforce planning

MEV Schweiz AG is one of the big players when it comes to providing railway personnel and operational services in this area. For long-time RailOpt users, it was therefore obvious to introduce the ‘Automatic Workforce Planning’ feature. This feature went into production in March 2024.

Creating a work schedule at a company like MEV CH is a highly complex distribution process. A lot of personnel with different qualifications must be distributed to tasks while taking into account working time regulations. For example, rest periods should be optimally designed. Previously, this was a time-consuming and error-prone task for planners. The new tool from Qnamic completes this task optimally within seconds using AI. Errors are excluded, and planners have time to deal with special cases, change requests, etc. Overall, it is possible to react much faster to changes.

“Automatic workforce allocation has quickly become an important tool for us to further expand our market position. The optimizer has already unleashed enormous work potential, allowing us to better serve customer needs.”

The initial results have already confirmed MEV’s hopes to further optimize processes in their core industry. Managing Director Tommaso di Benedetto is accordingly satisfied: “Automatic workforce allocation has quickly become an important tool for us to further expand our market position. The optimizer has already unleashed enormous work potential, allowing us to better serve customer needs.”
