Board International, the leading software provider of an all-in-one decision making platform that integrates Business Intelligence (BI), Performance Management, and Advanced Analytics, now welcomes SBB Cargo International to its customer base in Switzerland. The rail transport company \u2013 the market leader in cross-alpine traffic through Switzerland \u2013 has chosen the versatile cloud-based solution to master its growing volumes of data and significantly reduce the manual effort that goes into running the company.<\/p>\n\n\n


Efficient and Accurate Data Management with a Central Datasource<\/strong>
\u201cThe volumes of data that we process on a daily basis are immense. They come not only from SAP and Zedas, which is a special ERP solution for logistics management in rail traffic, but also from the infrastructure operators that provide us with the tracks and the power we need. These data volumes contain information from the entire supply chain, including customer orders, staff salaries, performance data, locomotive outputs and timetable data from active trains, as well as invoicing data from the infrastructure operators,\u201d explains Manuela Jucker, Controller at SBB Cargo International. \u201cUntil now, we managed all this in Excel by allocating different codes and feeding this information into the reporting and planning system. The amount of work was immense, with a huge error rate. With a professional BI solution, we are looking to make clear improvements in our efficiency and gain more in-depth insights by mapping the data better,\u201c adds Manuela.<\/p>\n\n\n


After an extensive Proof of Concept process, the SBB Cargo subsidiary whittled the selection down to two final providers. \u201cThe workshop we had with Board was very intensive, creative, and the closing presentation completely won over our management board. Not only does Board have a broader functional scope in terms of commenting options and data entry, but it also comes with a comprehensive, high-performance database. The option for Controlling to transfer data directly and the data modeling features give it a significant edge over its competitors,\u201c says Manuela.<\/p>\n\n\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n

Developing and Enhancing the Cloud-Based BI Solution in Self-Service<\/strong>
Now well into the coaching process, SBB Cargo International is fully on board with the BI project, working with Board to create its first central datasource to sustain all its future reporting and planning processes. Ideally, the company would like the Board solution to incorporate all its data, even down to the individual fault management Excel worksheets required for reports and operational planning. \u201cWith the support of Board\u2019s consultants, we will soon be \u2018fluent\u2019 in Board, especially in creating reports. We want to be in a position where our own Controlling team and Key Users in the specialist departments can develop our reporting and planning solution. This promises not only cost savings but most importantly a high level of agility in how we manage the company,\u201c explains Beat Gr\u00fctter, Head of Finance & IT at SBB Cargo International.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n
