A key differentiator of RAILS™ is in its ability to integrate disparate real-time data from existing tracking systems with ease.

RAILS™ supports all stardard CLM formats, customized CLM formats direct from rail carriers and 3rd parties, EDI messages, GPS messages, AEI messages and proprietary TMS system extracts.  Basically, RAILS™ has been designed to utilize existing data streams with built-in Extraction, Transformation and Loading (ETL) capabilities.

We realize that data is expensive.  RAILS™ won't increase your data costs but will help you extract more value from it.  Also, RAILS™ functions with minimal data requirements.  Equipment ID, event, event timestamp and either a location name or GPS coordinates is all that's needed.  RAIL's™ takes care of all the time zone translations and geo-referencing from coordinates to place names and SPLC's.  We can even provide a coordinate for your CLM's enabling you to display CLM locations on an interactive map.

The RAILS™ suite is easy to deploy and can be soft-coupled to existing TMS Systems via the cloud.  There is no software to install.  Once backend data feeds are in place, you simply logon to RAILS™ via the web and your ready to go.

If you have GPS equipped railcars, containters, locomotives or tractors, RAILS™ can integrate this data with conventional CLM.

Similarly, if you have AEI readers, this data can be integrated as well -- And all of it links with our GIS visualization tools so users can literally see, via interactive map, chart or graph, exactly where assets are located as well as where problems are occurring.
