Digital Maintenance and Deployment Processes for the Railway Industry

Infrastructure operators, railway technology companies, and service providers in the railway industry face tremendous pressure to keep operations efficient, safe, and well-documented. With the e-switch Suite, you can digitize your processes around planning, maintenance, reporting, and mobile technician support – all directly within SAP.

Industry Challenge

Disruptions in rail traffic must be resolved quickly. At the same time, personnel, vehicles, and tools must be scheduled efficiently and in compliance with regulations. Manual planning quickly reaches its limits in complex environments with many locations. A solution that operates in real time, is mobile-ready, and fully integrated becomes essential.
