IVU MAKES INTEGRATED
RESOURCE PLANNING
POSSIBLE AND EASY.
All planning and dispatching processes
for personnel and vehicle deployment
in a universal system.
The deployment of the key resources “employees” and “vehicles” is a central component of rail operations. In the past, paper and pencil, as well as magnet boards were chiefly used for this purpose. Later on came computer programs that were tailored to individual procedural steps. This then led to the emergence of a heterogeneous system landscape made up of many individual software solutions. All of these parallel systems had to be meticulously linked together via interfaces. The redun-dancy of the processed data can lead to inconsistencies.
In addition, each of these systems must also be operated and maintained separately.
In recent years, the possibilities for IT support have increased significantly, both with regard to the amount of data processed and the functional complexity. Over more than 30 years, IVU Traffic Technologies AG has acquired a wealth of expertise in the field of planning and dispatching software. IVU. rail provides our clients with a standard solution that covers the planning and dispatching process in its entirety, from supply planning and operational implementation in predefined vehicle workings and duties to the daily dispatching of rolling stock and train drivers, train conductors and shunting personnel. For the first time, all planning processes have been consolidated in one system and in a single database.
In cooperation with leading railway companies, IVU. rail is continually being upgraded and adapted to technological advances. Additional optimi-sation components have been included over the past few years which are based on elaborate mathematical algorithms, but which, at the same time, take into consideration rules and parameters from manual planning to attain results that can be directly used for operations. This means that the processing time for the implementation of a new timetable can be drasti-cally shortened and the resources needed for such a procedure can be reduced.

Integrated Resource Planning
IVU. rail. plan
Manages the entire route network and develops the timetable services available – from strategic planning to date-specific exceptions. By using intelligent algorithms, IVU. rail. plan optimises vehicle workings and duties, and at the same time considers any operational rules and guide-lines from the planner. -> Page 8
IVU. rail. crew
Manages the entire personnel deployment, from long-term vaca-tion planning to daily dispatching and precise payroll accounting. The dispatcher is provided with optimal support via the automatic personnel allocation and mobile duty sign-on control functions, in which the per-sonnel can participate by entering individual preferences. -> Page 13
IVU. rail. vehicle
Plans and controls the entire vehicle deployment and monitors the individual run performances and service intervals. Track occupancies can be recorded in detail in stations and parking facilities, and shunting processes can be planned. -> Page 18
MANY TASKS.
ONE PRODUCT.
Plan efficiently with IVU. rail
Whether for personnel or vehicle deployment, IVU. rail efficiently manages all conceivable planning tasks. The system also incorporates the planner‘s operational rules and quality guidelines. With its fully- automated variation calculations, parameter analyses and intelligent algorithms, IVU. rail paves the way for dependable decision making. The possibility for using flexible cost weighting, operational stability and employee satisfaction guarantees optimised planning scenarios according to individual requirements. In addition, IVU. rail. plan provides an array of interfaces for follow-up systems and allows for the generation of various statistics and printouts.
Rapid and flexible dispatching with IVU. rail
The daily deployment of vehicles and personnel poses a challenge to dispatchers in long-distance, regional and city transport. Can duty roster scheduling be optimised in such a way that employee requests, legal regulations and commercial aspects are taken into consideration? Have any train drivers called in sick? Have the vehicles been deployed in accord-ance with the service interval guidelines from the maintenaccord-ance workshop? IVU‘s dispatching systems indicate which resources are currently in use and where. Thus, railway companies can quickly react to unpredictable events in a flexible manner, e. g. they can switch out personnel or deploy replacement vehicles. This flexibility provided by IVU. rail. crew and IVU. rail. vehicle is of utmost importance in order to ensure smooth trans-port and quality services for the passengers, without losing sight of the costs involved.

Company-wide data integration for long-distance and regional transport, the creation of timetable booklets and the provision of data for booking and reservation systems.
IVU. rail for CP in Portugal
375 vehicles and 1,500 employees are planned and optimised on a route network of 2,830 km. Integration of IVU. rail into the existing system landscape from infrastructure planning and personnel dispatching via standardised interfaces.
IVU. rail for VR in Finland
With 19 tracks, 310 long-distance trips and around 890 commuter trips a day, Helsinki is one of Europe‘s largest dead-end stations. Trains pull in and out of the station every minute. If delays occur, then it is imperative that open track sections be located and waiting trains rerouted as quickly as possible.
IVU. rail for the Swiss Federal Railways SBB
Duty scheduling and dispatching for more than 6,500 locomotive drivers and train conductors using a further developed version of IVU. rail. crew. Over 200 users at SBB work at 21 different locations throughout Switzerland and must be able to access all of the data simultaneously in three different languages.
OUR CLIENTS.
Standardisation and individuality.
IVU. rail is tried and tested and has been implemented by railway compa-nies around the world. IVU. rail was developed in close cooperation with leading European railway operators and is the only standard product that supports complete and integrated resource planning. At the same time, IVU.rail is integrated into the existing environment and can be adjusted to individual needs. This is facilitated in the system by the flexible param-eterisation of rule systems, interfaces and printouts. Project implementa-tions, which in the past might have taken several years, can now often be completed in only a few months.

OPTIMISING LIMITED
RESOURCES.
A stable timetable that meets demand and requires as few personnel and vehicles as possible – this is a challenge for railway companies everywhere, and optimisation here offers the greatest potential for improving efficiency.
The planners face the difficult task of taking into consideration client requests, vehicle equipment, labour-law provisions, special incidents, such as roadworks or sporting events, and much more – and all of this on a real-time basis. At the same time, however, the planner must provide for an operation that is as economically viable as possible. This is hardly conceivable without technical support, since the creation and evaluation of timetable planning, vehicle working scheduling and duty scheduling scenarios according to specified criteria is fundamental for optimal planning.
Depending on capacity demands, train formations must be assembled together and split apart. When doing so, the entire planning occurs in an integrated manner, taking into consideration existing company supplies, special equipment, available personnel, qualifications, legal and labour-law-related provisions, passenger counts and predefined rule checks.
“IVU.rail has already been used for many years by DB Regio in the integrated resource planning and dispatching project for commuter rail operations. The highly-inte-grated processing and the corre-sponding optimisation parameters allow for an immediate reaction to short-term timetable changes that, for example, are caused by the additional ordering of special services and unscheduled track works throughout the year.”

TIMETABLE PLANNING
AT A GLANCE.
IVU. rail. plan manages the entire route network and develops available timetable services, from strategic planning to date-specific exceptions. The system plans all train formations and integrates track occupancies, parking actions and maintenance planning.
Supply planning
From the long-term yearly timetable to short-term changes Data transfer from track planning systems in the standard
railML format (www.railml. org) Compilation and revision of timetables
Trains and vehicle workings
Combining trains and connecting them to vehicle working sequences Automatic calculation of the position and orientation
of a vehicle in the train formation
Consideration of vehicle types, service intervals and layover times in vehicle working scheduling
Shunting and parking
Track-specific shunting and parking in the train station or in the parking facility
Consideration of track and depot capacities (restrictions) Planning service blocks (refuelling, cleaning, maintenance) Preplanning maintenance capacities and workshop workloads

THE RIGHT EMPLOYEE.
THE RIGHT PLACE.
THE RIGHT TIME.
Which train driver is driving which train today? Different vehicles, equipment and routes require appropriate qualifications. In addition, working time regulations, operational provisions and vacation / day-off requests must be considered in duty scheduling. Therefore, vehicle and personnel dispatching should be integrated in order to achieve the optimal deployment of resources.
Once the duties have been planned, the dispatcher must check duty sign-ons, find any replacements as quickly as possible for cancellations due to sickness or delays and prepare all of the data for payroll accoun-ting. These tasks would be almost impossible without software support. The dispatcher is provided with optimal support by means of the auto-matic personnel allocation and the mobile duty sign-on control functions. Clear displays provide a current picture of the duties for which an
employee actually signed on. Aside from manually entering this data, the registered times can also be evaluated by card readers and stationary or mobile devices.
By entering their individual preferences, the driving personnel also take part in duty scheduling. Requests can be entered via terminals, mobile devices or the Internet – just like duty queries and signing on and off. During duty allocation, the automatic personnel dispatching is used to keep the employee‘s work time accounts balanced, considering the employee‘s requests and creating fair duty schedules. Absences, due to vacation or sickness for example, are also considered in the process, as well as the qualifications of the respective employees. In order to guarantee a continuous flow of data, IVU. rail. crew contains standardised interfaces to all known HR management systems.
“With the further development of IVU. rail we have reached a new level of transparency and flexibility in duty schedule planning and optimisation. Thanks to IVU. rail it is now possible to cover all duty forms and find the best possible solution. With the help of the vehicle scheduling program that is currently being imple-mented, all resources will soon be planned in one integrated step, boosting our productivity in a sustainable manner.”

DISPATCHING
ROLLING STOCK.
Once the timetable and vehicle working schedule have been created, the dispatchers are faced with the challenge of organising the vehicle deployment as efficiently as possible. Vehicle management is particularly complicated in rail transport. Train formations may be split and continued as separate services, or vehicle groups may be removed or added. Such reconfigurations are all part of the dispatchers‘ everyday work.
IVU. rail. vehicle plans and controls the entire vehicle deployment in passenger and freight transport. The run performances and service intervals of the individual vehicles are monitored continuously and exchanged with the maintenance workshop systems via online interfaces. The detailed depiction of the parking facilities helps to pre-plan shunting procedures.
During operations, the dispatcher must react quickly to any changes like delays and cancellations. IVU. rail. vehicle supports this with the planned and actual displays and the calculation of arrival prognoses, including their effects on layover times and following trips.
When doing so, the dispatcher must be careful to consider vehicle equipment and conditions, integrate special trains, plan maintenance actions, relay and assign open parking spaces and take into account personnel allocations. Therefore, modern dispatching systems should give an overview of which vehicle is currently deployed and with which crew.

OPTIMISATION AS
EFFICIENCY ENGINE.
Quick calculation of complex scenarios
Attain the best results while observing all requests – that is the job of the optimisation. If you are looking for the shortest path between two points, then the solution is fairly simple. However, if you wish to find the fastest travel path for a multitude of points while considering all of the boundary conditions, then optimisation turns into a highly-complicated arithmetic problem. Multi-layered automation tasks and decision-making processes can only be solved with IT and mathematics. Therefore, IVU cooperates with the “Optimisation” department of the Konrad Zuse Institute in Berlin (ZIB) for the development of optimisation components.
The optimisation of personnel and vehicle deployment is especially challenging. Thousands of duty elements must be combined into as few duties as possible within a short period of time. When doing so, all hard and soft rules for work time, breaks, qualifications, fares, travel paths and capacities must be observed. Therefore, the optimisation relies on a comprehensive database and complete rule systems. When examin-ing existexamin-ing systems in the course of optimaisation projects we are often able to identify invalid vehicle workings and duties.
The fine tuning of optimisation parameters, especially for larger scenar-ios, is a very complex and challenging task. The complete integration of the rule system ensures that the computed vehicle workings and duties conform to the rules and can be directly adopted into the operation. This optimises resource deployment and at the same time accelerates the planning processes while providing more flexibility.

AUTOMATION AND
OPTIMISATION.
Increased efficiency with the optimisation tools from IVU. rail by combining mathematical research with engineering know-how and hands-on experience.
Duty optimisation
Consider work-time rules and labour agreements, as well as soft operational constraints
Guarantee complete scheduling of all duty elements Incorporate qualification and capacity guidelines Consider multiple crewing / teams
Vehicle working optimisation
Consider service intervals, maintenance cycles and infrastructure capacities
Ensure uniform distribution of performance over a longer period of time
Create robust run schedules while simultaneously minimising required vehicles and necessary non-revenue trips
Weekly template optimisation
Reduce variations during the week with fewer overtime hours or sub-performances
Better distribution of days off and undesirable duties (e. g. late duties or split duties)
Acceleration of the entire planning process
Automatic personnel dispatching
Observe qualifications, capacities and rule systems Keep employee accounts balanced and allocate fairly Consider individual employee requests
