Authorities
Feed data directly to transport authorities and third-party applications to meet data management and data-sharing requirements
Quickly define routes with precise key data such as depots, termini, timing points, vehicle stops and landmarks, using geographical coordinates. Replicate common route segments throughout the network, automatically calculate running times and distances for service routes or vehicle repositioning between termini and depots.
Operators
Maximise vehicle resources and meet service requirements through strict operational controls such as minimum and maximum vehicle deployment, kilometre cost by vehicle type, running costs and running time by fleet.
Control your timetable by integrating rules and operational preferences to produce the best possible timetable and optimal fleet size. Quickly revise services or schedules and spend less time on fleet management tasks. Improve fleet use by measuring and analysing multiple variables including route kilometres, depot dispatches, departures and arrivals, and vehicles in traffic.
Scheduling
Streamline scheduling tasks by integrating rules, preferences and enterprise bargaining agreements.
Reduce the complexity of creating optimised crew schedules. Easily build schedules according to shift types, pay rules or enterprise bargaining regulations. Integrate schedules with vehicle timetables to meet unique scheduling parameters. Adapt schedules to fit specific needs and make seamless updates to address changing priorities.
Workforce Management
Gain access to accurate weekly or fortnightly rosters to manage staff schedules and provide legally-verifiable information.
Build multiple rosters and optimise costs over the long term with an interactive tool to set and match user-defined shift types and input, update and edit leave patterns automatically or manually. Make manual roster adjustments, validate completed rosters, calculate costs and track statistics in motion. Optimise personnel to create balanced workloads and prevent overlap.
Executive Management
Leverage on-demand statistical reports and roster summaries to gain a clear view of business performance.
Eliminate double-handling of information – work with a one-stop environment. Integrate a single Trapeze module with your current operations, or choose multiple applications for a complete enterprise system with information from all modules available across the suite. Streamline operations and timetables using integrated vehicle timetabling, driver scheduling and crew rostering tools.
Optimising for great results.
The AUSTRICS Optimiser simultaneously optimises vehicle and crew schedules for great results.
