Customer: PROODOS S.A.

Duration: July 2002 – December 2003

The Railway Network Management Information System developed for the transport and logistics company PROODOS S.A. allows to the parties involved in the network activities to carry out their business and transport activities efficiently, reliably and safely. In order to achieve this goal, an Internet-based platform has been developed. This platform supports an open information exchange system, as well as the dynamic transport planning (train composition) and the cargo / transport mean monitoring along the entire transport chain.
The main services provided by the system are the following:
• Documents interchange: the parties participating in the rail network activities can exchange formal documents and messages in a structured electronic form.
• Transport planning/management : the PROODOS officers have the electronic means to plan and organize the transportation procedures (e.g. transport chain formulation and train composition), through the platform.
• Cargo tracking & tracing: PROODOS can monitor the route of train during the transport process and provide to its clients dynamic information on their respective shipment/ wagons position and condition.
