Optimisation of maintenance concepts and processes
Maintenance of rolling stock is a complex process that requires continuous adaptation to regulatory and technical requirements. Enotrac is a reliable partner for customers who want to optimise their existing maintenance concepts and processes. Our focus is on cost-effectiveness, compliance with regulatory requirements such as the ECM regulation, and ensuring technical standards.
Analysis and efficiency improvement
Enotrac offers tailored solutions for optimising maintenance concepts and processes. Our approach begins with a thorough analysis that focuses on key areas such as ECM management, maintenance development, fleet management, and the actual maintenance provision.
Digital efficiency in document management through ECM
Enotrac experts take a strategic approach to digital efficiency in document management through Enterprise Content Management (ECM). This approach covers several key steps to comprehensively capture, manage, store, preserve, and deliver content and documents. The focus is not only on document management, but on the holistic integration of structured, weakly structured, and unstructured information.
Capturing content and documents
Our Enotrac team of experts begins the process by comprehensively capturing content and documents. This includes all relevant information related to the maintenance of rolling stock in the rail sector. Not only formal and structured documents are taken into account, but also less formal and structured information that is relevant for a comprehensive view of the maintenance processes.
Managing content
Once the content has been captured, it is systematically managed. Enotrac uses the latest technologies and methods to enable efficient organisation and structuring of the documents. Metadata, categories, and other administrative information are used to make content easy to find and access.
Storage and preservation
A further central step is the secure storage and preservation of content. Enotrac relies on reliable and highly secure storage systems to ensure that all relevant information is preserved over the long term. This is important both for compliance with legal requirements and for the traceability and history of maintenance processes.
Provision of content
The last step in the process is the efficient provision of the stored content. Enotrac places a high value on this information being accessible to both its own technical experts and all authorised users within an organisation. This promotes transparency and collaboration with regard to maintenance activities.
Enotrac takes a practical approach to EU Regulation No. 445/2011 on the certification requirement for the maintenance of freight wagons and its extension to the European railway sector from June 2022. We support our customers through the entire process, whether they are an independent railway undertaking, an independent workshop or a vehicle owner. Our holistic approach ensures that the ECM role is not only fulfilled, but also contributes to ensuring and optimising the long-term maintenance of rolling stock. Enotrac remains your partner for digital efficiency in maintenance documentation.
Digitised optimisation for sustainable success through fleet management
Enotrac places a clear focus on fleet management as a critical component for sustainable success in the rail system. Our expertise extends to the comprehensive management, planning, control, and monitoring of vehicle fleets. The use of digital systems, based on telemetry data and GPS technology, plays a crucial role in this.
Optimal management of vehicle fleets
Our experts at Enotrac are dedicated to the optimal management of vehicle fleets. This includes the maintenance and monitoring of vehicle data, maintenance schedules, and usage histories. Through efficient data management, we create the basis for optimised use and availability of vehicles.
Intelligent planning of vehicle movements
Planning routes and vehicle movements is a crucial aspect of fleet management. Enotrac relies on intelligent algorithms and digital planning tools to coordinate vehicle movements. This enables both efficient use of resources and minimisation of empty runs.
Effective control of fleet processes
Managing fleet operations involves real-time monitoring of vehicles, coordinating maintenance work and responding quickly to unforeseen events. Enotrac relies on digital solutions that enable these processes to be managed effectively while also allowing for flexible responses to changes.
Monitoring for cost efficiency
Digitalised systems, based on telemetry data and GPS, play a key role in monitoring cost efficiency. By continuously monitoring vehicle performance, fuel consumption and maintenance requirements, we can identify potential cost factors at an early stage and optimise them in a targeted manner.
Relieving the burden on dispatchers through automation
Enotrac’s goal is to reduce the workload of dispatchers while simultaneously increasing efficiency. By automating processes, especially in the area of route planning and vehicle control, we create space for strategic decisions and minimise manual intervention.
Our holistic approach to fleet management not only takes into account the technological aspects, but also the strategic and business objectives of our customers. Enotrac stands for the digital optimisation of fleet management processes to ensure sustainable success in the rail sector.
Interface optimisation for sustainable maintenance
Enotrac regards the efficient design of interfaces as a central building block for the sustainable success of rail systems. Our holistic approach extends across various areas of the company, including materials and logistics, procurement processes, make-or-buy decisions, finance, value flows, order time recording and lean management. Our understanding of lean management encompasses a range of principles, methods and procedures that aim to make the entire value chain of industrial goods as efficient as possible.
Materials and logistics
By optimising interfaces in the areas of materials and logistics, we create the basis for a smooth supply of the required materials and spare parts. This ensures continuous availability and minimises downtime.
