Release 2024.1

We are excited to introduce the new semi-annual release 2024.1. This update demonstrates our ongoing commitment to further develop RailOpt and provide innovative and proactive solutions. Our goal is to give our users a competitive edge in the railway industry.

This is achieved primarily by consistently supporting the increasingly complex work of planners and dispatchers with automation through RailOpt. Potential human errors are continuously reduced, and work potential is freed up.

Following the major steps taken with the 2023.2 release, particularly with the introduction of automatic personnel allocation and the enhanced UI of the planning module, this path will be consistently pursued with R2024.1. At this point, we would like to present two highlights from the current release.

Track Layout: The clarity in the planning modules has been further improved through visual support.

  • With the new feature, you can easily add graphical representations of track layouts and individual storage areas to operational points.
  • By accessing the master data in RailOpt, an always up-to-date, visualized layout of the operational points is created.
  • The visualization of track lengths, current storage, etc., makes planning work easier for dispatchers and supports them in their decisions.
  • You can quickly and easily navigate between individual storage areas via web links.
  • Your on-site personnel also receive an up-to-date layout of the surroundings through access via RailOpt WEB, allowing them to move more safely and cautiously.

Qualification Management Enhancements: When planning operations, not only legal requirements must be considered. Railway companies often have specific requirements for execution. Therefore, it is now possible to verify qualifications based on the responsible railway company.

  • Specific qualifications of other railway companies can be created in RailOpt.
  • For example, if a railway company requires special local knowledge for a stop, this can be stored there.
  • If this knowledge is not considered when planning an operation, a conflict message appears with reference to the regulation of the responsible railway company.
  • The new qualification management significantly simplifies data management and maintenance.
  • You always have an overview of whether it is your own requirements or those of other railway companies.

Our recent progress is thanks to the dedicated work of our team and the active participation of our user community, who continuously support us with valuable feedback. Preparations for the fall release 2024.2 are already in full swing. We look forward to presenting you with more innovative features and improvements soon. Thank you to our users for their trust and continued involvement in the development of our platform.
