Seamless rail traffic for Europe - HaCon at the transport logistic fair 2009

Hanover, Munich 2009-04-03 - HaCon is - as partner of logistic network consulting (LNC) from Hanover – among the 1.600 exhibitors of the exhibitors at the transport logistic in Munich. At Europe's largest logistics fair from May 12th to 15th 2009 HaCon presents its train planning system TPS and the results of the latest projects from the Transport Consulting department.

With TPS, HaCon has launched an innovative train planning and timetable management system with unique abilities to the market. The TPS software creates schedules, reviews and evaluates them, always taking into account the special requirements of the path management in Europe. One of the special feature is, for example, the rolling plan. Regardless of the timetables that are planned for just one period, TPS is capable of planning the current and forthcoming periods in one plan. This accelerates the planning process and reduces the programming effort –time and costs are considerably reduced.

"The fair is an excellent platform to intensify the exchange with our current and potential customers as well as with partners" says Werner Sommerfeld, Managing Director at HaCon. "This way we can make sure that our technical solutions and services are always up-to-date."

Also the HaCon Consulting department uses this platform. As a coordinator of EU projects, the team is already established as a fixed size. In the context of this exhibition, HaCon shows the successful implementation of the EU-CREAM project in cooperation with its partner KombiConsult. The aim of the project is to link traffic carriers in the transport corridor of Benelux – Turkey/Greece, to improve processes and provide traffic carriers with new concepts that make them more competitive. "We use in such projects the far-reaching practical experience of all project partners and the extensive expertise of our consulting division," says Lars Deiterding, project coordinator at HaCon. "The transfer of proven solutions, combined with innovative new developments lead to significant improvements and interesting customer-oriented transportation solutions. We look forward to present these results at the transport logistic."
