Case Study: AKN Eisenbahn AG streamlines duty and run scheduling with IVU.rail from IVU Traffic Technologies

Efficient Duty and Run Schedules for Increasing Demands

AKN Eisenbahn AG, a regional passenger rail operator in Schleswig-Holstein, needed a better way to handle growing planning demands across duty scheduling and vehicle run scheduling. Its existing processes kept these tasks separate, making it harder for planners to improve planning quality and work efficiently. IVU Traffic Technologies provided IVU.rail to address these challenges.

IVU Traffic Technologies implemented IVU.rail as an integrated planning system that combines duty and run scheduling, adds optimization and automation functions, and connects seamlessly with settlement through IVU.control. The result was a much simpler planning workflow, faster work cycles, and more efficient duty and run schedules with less effort for planners. AKN also benefited from standard interfaces for data exchange with fleet management, dispatch, and public transport authorities.
