Synectics' S-Bahn project goes live

 

Synectics plc (AIM: SNX), a leader in the design, integration and support of
advanced security and surveillance systems, announces that it has successfully
deployed the first phase of its pioneering operational management system for
Deutsche Bahn's S-Bahn operation in Berlin.  The project utilises the latest
developments in Synectics new Synergy hybrid cloud software platform and is
now supporting live operations across an extensive urban transport network
that incorporates trains, tracks and stations.

 

The initial implementation, which went live as scheduled on 1 January 2021,
will continue to rollout over the next few months as the teams add
functionality and refine the user experience. The project is part of a wider
Deutsche Bahn commitment to revolutionise Berlin's rail services and deliver
an outstanding passenger experience. Teams based at S-Bahn's operational
headquarters are now using Synergy and its new mobile application to connect,
respond, and collaborate with passengers and staff on-board trains and at
stations.

 

Synergy's new Workforce Management capability will further enhance operational
efficiency and enable rapid, co-ordinated incident responses. When combined
with the mobile application, S-Bahn will be able to extend bi-directional
control room operations into the field, automating and managing field team
task assignments in real time.

 

Henning Oelze, Project Manager for S-Bahn commented: "We selected Synectics as
they shared our vision for the future of smart transport operations in a major
European capital. The Synectics team worked through one of the most
challenging years we have faced to deliver this ground-breaking project on
time.  They have worked in close partnership with the S-Bahn team,
successfully navigating their way through the technical, logistical and
cultural challenges of a major international project."

 

Paul Webb, Chief Executive of Synectics plc, added: "The S-Bahn project is
strategically important to Synectics and the wider urban transport industry.
Together we have created new possibilities for integrated command, control and
communications across complex urban transport networks that are no longer
confined to traditional control room operations."
