Vehicle scheduling
Efficient vehicle schedules
Creating efficient vehicle schedules and optimising vehicle requirements: IVU.run supports the entire schedule planning process – from daily deployment through to multi-day vehicle scheduling including maintenance and service times. Numerous automation functions and sophisticated rule systems help to speed up your workflows.
IVU.run’s intelligent suggestion system makes your planning processes much easier: Taking into account vehicle-specific factors such as for electric buses and current restrictions, the system recommends at the click of a mouse suitable connections for journeys and vehicle schedules that meet all the relevant operational requirements and regulations. IVU.run’s powerful optimisation core relieves you of various complex tasks. It automatically generates vehicle schedules based on individual requirements, minimising the number of vehicles required. You also benefit from extensive variant planning for calculating different scenarios and their costs.

Your benefits with IVU.run
-
Integrated planning processes
IVU.run includes all relevant information in schedule planning – from timetables to duty schedules -
Automatic suggestion system
Efficiency, resilience, operational stability – IVU.run automatically suggests the best possible vehicle schedules for railcars and trains
-
Automatic suggestion system
The right vehicle type for the right vehicle schedule – automatic suggestions for suitable vehicles speed up the planning process -
Integrated user interface
The all-in-one system: Planners benefit from a standardised user interface with functions for all drive types
-
Extensive charging planning
From the recharge status and infrastructure through to the charging duration, IVU.run supports you in all aspects of charge planning -
Taking activities into account
Whether cleaning or preconditioning, any activities on the vehicle can be easily planned and entered in the vehicle working schedule -
Predicting power consumption
Weather, passenger numbers, battery age: interfaces to the vehicle monitoring system enable detailed forecasts
From train path application to dispatch
An entirely digital flow of data is essential. IVU.rail creates a consistent data pool from rail to driver.
Personnel and duty scheduling
Perfect duty schedules
The optimum duty schedule at the press of a button – with IVU.duty, you can create efficient duty schedules for driving, service and workshop employees alike. The intelligent suggestion system and powerful optimisation make light work of such complex tasks.
IVU.duty takes all the relevant data directly from vehicle schedule planning. The system takes into account any changes to individual vehicle schedules immediately and suggests amendments to duty schedules where required. Within just a few minutes, special optimisation algorithms merge thousands of duty elements, crewing guidelines and qualifications to create the perfect duty schedule. Variants and adjustments allow you to respond instantly to short-notice changes without affecting duty schedules.
Regional transport operators in particular benefit from the integrated duty and vehicle working scheduling, which synchronises schedule times with drivers’ work and break times to ensure optimum utilisation of all vehicles and employees.
How you benefit
from IVU.duty
- Intelligent optimisation
IVU.duty merges thousands of duty elements to create the perfect duty schedule and, in turn, to ensure maximum efficiency - Adjustment optimisation
IVU.duty leaves existing duties largely untouched, even in the face of short-notice changes to the duty schedule - Extensive variant planning
New transport contract or changes to services – IVU.duty calculates the impact on staff and associated costs - Flexible rule editor
Whether duty guidelines, qualifications, labour laws or company agreements, you enjoy total flexibility when entering and adapting rules
Your benefits with IVU.duty
-
Integrated suggestion system
To speed up the planning process, IVU.duty automatically adds tasks and groups them together according to the rule system
-
Integrated duty and vehicle scheduling
To ensure optimum deployment of resources, schedule times can be synchronised with work and break times and optimised in a single step
-
Integrated duty and vehicle scheduling
Duty scheduling synchronises bus charging times with drivers’ break times, helping to achieve optimum results
Optimisation as a driver of efficiency –
calculating highly complex scenarios in seconds
The potential is significant: Making vehicle and duty schedules just a few percent more efficient can save bus operators and railway companies a lot of money. IVU.suite’s optimisation solutions help you to create complex vehicle and duty schedules in just a short space of time and make the most out of the available resources.
Whether you want to optimise your duties and vehicle schedules in a single process, adjust existing schedules in a matter of seconds or calculate scenarios for tenders, IVU.suite gives you the efficiency you need.
