Railroads operate in an environment where human safety and infrastructure reliability are typically the top two priorities. To address those priorities, railroads maintain large and skilled maintenance forces that perform preventive maintenance (PM) and testing and inspections (T&I) activities that are driven by detailed policies and procedures. Government regulations have a strong influence on the specifics of routine testing and inspection activities, and that standardization provides some important common ground across the industry, allowing 10East to bring great value to a very large customer base.
RailDOCS's Preventive Maintenance Management System is used by many of North America's largest railroads to understand, plan, and schedule routine PM and T&I activities on their fixed infrastructure.
These systems have RailDOCS Mobile components, allowing 10East to deliver the very best operational business intelligence, directly from many thousand ballast-line mobile workers right up to the highest levels of senior management. Having been in service on Class I railroads since 2002, these systems are time-tested and proven to keep our customers in compliance with their PM and T&I requirements, and to provide true return on investment.
Today, RailDOCS PMMS systems are available to the Signal and Communications disciplines, and cover all classes of fixed assets that those departments maintain. Highway Grade Crossing Tests, Grounds Tests, Timing Tests, Mainline and Yard Switch Tests, Locking Tests (approach, indication, mechanical, route, time, and traffic), Bridge Tests, Insulation Tests, Relay Tests, Signal Tests, Automatic Train Stop Tests, Defect Detector Tests (e.g. hot journal, high/wide load, brittle bar, slide fence, etc.), Hump Yard Retarder Tests, and Radio Tests are all available, and in-service on existing 10East customers.
Benefiting from 10East's years of experience in providing rail-focused business systems, RailDOCS PMMS user interfaces are useful and intuitive, providing the right information, in the right places, and at the right level of detail, to help customers manage better and do so in less time.
RailDOCS PMMS utilizes 10East's Bolt-on Maps technology to also provide highly intuitive "real-world" views of customer infrastructure and assets, with color-coded markers that provide "at a glance" clarity. Links to external resources are also provided, allowing users to get driving directions, view satellite imagery, query FRA and FCC data on assets, etc. Customers utilizing the RailDOCS Plan Management Program also have "one click away" access to infrastructure plans for their managed assets.
Built upon the foundation of RailDOCS's PMMS PM and T&I systems, RailDOCS's Configuration Management System raises the bar even higher, providing unprecedented levels of detailed fixed asset management and oversight. RailDOCS's CMS is tightly integrated with the PM and T&I tools, providing a fluid and integrated Preventive Maintenance Management System to 10East customers.
