Operational Impact
The implementation of the Enterprise Integration Data Platform (EIDP) has resulted in a more agile digital ecosystem with data at the helm of its innovation. The platform has enabled ARTC to unify its approach to data management, advanced analytics, and ML-powered solutions. The data engineers are now able to perform multiple functions in a secure and seamless way, across data ingestion, data preparation, and data analysis. This has led to the creation of a data-driven ecosystem where ARTC's systems can communicate with each other seamlessly and implement groundbreaking design patterns with an event-driven architecture and high technical maturity. The new system has also prepared ARTC for future events, providing seamless access to rail track data and a consolidated view of its track health. This helps to prevent outages and forward-plan track maintenance schedules using predictive analytics, further preventing disruption to operations and network failures. | |
