Trimble Rail | Customer Experience | NS Groep N.V. (NS) | R2M Real-time Monitoring Enables Efficient Maintenance Workflows

Trimble’s real-time remote diagnostic monitoring solution provides a comprehensive view of fleet status and identifies specific faults and potential faults that may arise.

NS Groep N.V. (NS), the Dutch state-owned rail company, has deployed the Trimble® R2M real-time remote diagnostics system as a core component of their overall real-time monitoring architecture. The system allows railway operators to streamline business processes, specifically target maintenance interventions, and significantly reduce costs, whilst increasing overall reliability and availability.

“Using the Trimble real-time remote monitoring system, the biggest benefit is that trains can be taken to the workshop before a break down, engineers know exactly what must be done, and what parts they need. As a consequence, trains can be put back into service quicker,” says Falco Mooren, Project Manager for Real Time Monitoring at the technical division of NS.
