IVU.suite
The end-to-end solution for bus and rail

An integrated, one-stop solution – IVU.suite offers the right support for all fields of activity of bus and rail companies: from planning, dispatch, fleet management, ticketing and passenger information through to the settlement of transport contracts.

IVU.suite maps all the operational processes performed by transport operators, offering a suitable solution for every task. With the IVU.suite, bus operators and railway companies achieve more, allowing them to establish an end-to-end digital workflow and integrate all operational areas – from planners through to drivers. Whether they use an end-to-end solution or stand-alone products, all data remains in a single system. This ensures efficiency – on the road, on tracks and in the control centre.

01 Rail

Every day is filled with complex tasks for railway companies: creating timetables, planning vehicle schedules, organising duties, operating trains, managing data and much more. These complex tasks require specialists with the right training and the right tools. IVU.rail maps a railway company’s operational processes in their entirety, offering a suitable solution for every task.

All benefits for rail transport

02 E-mobility integrated

The future of mobility is electric. Transport operators face many challenges, such as determining power supply requirements, planning and building charging stations, adjusting vehicle workings to suit ranges, integrating charging times, monitoring the state of charge (SoC) and infrastructure, planning charging processes, dispatching in realtime and learning from the data.

Everything on the use of electric buses

03 System solutions

IVU offers a one-stop solution for everything, from the control centre system and the on-board computer software to the device itself. This ensures uninterrupted data flows and smooth processes.

04 Optimisation as a driver of efficiency

Planning vehicle schedules and duties is a demanding task. The ability to deploy all resources properly and as effectively as possible poses a real challenge. But the potential here is significant: Making vehicle and duty schedules even just a few percent more efficient can save bus operators and railway companies a lot of money – for trains and (electric) buses alike.

Optimisation in detail

05 IVU.pad – the digital workplace

The IVU.pad is a constant companion for drivers, customer service advisors and office-based staff. The mobile app keeps them in the loop – any time, any place. Important documents such as duty schedules, handbooks and forms are always available.

All benefits for mobile personnel
