Railpool Lokservice GmbH & Co. KG is a leading company in the field of maintenance, repair and modernization of rolling stock. Committed to delivering top-tier quality and safety, the company operates through two state-of-the-art workshops in Hamburg and a mobile workshop team.
In 2021, Railpool Lokservice confronted the challenge of integrating its two workshops, which operated on separate systems and primarily relied on paper-based processes. To address this, the company initiated a comprehensive digitalization initiative aimed at meeting evolving demands, enhancing operational efficiency, and ensuring compliance with ECM regulations.
Railpool Lokservice stands out for its centralized personnel distribution across all workshops and its commitment to the collaborative use of operational resources between locations to maximize efficiency. The implementation of Boom Rail Solutions is intended to deliver a comprehensive overview and enable effective management of all locations, facilitating the efficient resolution of operational challenges.
Boom‘s workshop solution has significantly reduced reliance on Excel spreadsheets, with usage continuing to decline. Tailored specifically to the needs of the rail industry, the solution includes a robust suite of essential features as standard. For instance, integrated centralized resource planning facilitates the seamless sharing of operational resources across workshops. Combined with an interface to the existing ERP system, it enables real-time tracking of material movements and stock levels, enhancing process transparency and efficiency. A standout feature is Boom‘s cost-effective license model, which remains independent of the number of users. Additionally, Boom‘s commitment to ongoing professional and technological advancements ensures the system remains sustainable and future-ready.
„We really appreciate Boom‘s way of thinking and are extremely pleased that we are actively involved in the development process in order to further develop the standard together with Boom. This collaboration benefits not only our operations but also other workshops,“ emphasizes Heiko DREHER, responsible for workshop management and work preparation at Railpool Lokservice GmbH & Co. KG.
