Swiss Federal Railways leverages the quality and reliability of comm.fleet
The fleet management software of community4you AG optimises the fleet administration at SBB.
The Swiss Federal Railways SBB entrusts the management of its fleet consisting of 5000 objects to the software of the technology company community4you AG from Chemnitz. In addition to the comm.fleet base module the Swiss company leverages as well the electronic vehicle record, billing, offer and contract management modules for the administration of its vehicles, trucks and cleaning machines.
As many other Swiss customers of community4you AG SBB benefits as well from the integrated support for multiple languages, and all software features are available in German, French and Italian.
The innovative functionalities of the Web based tool for automated reporting guarantee an efficient repair management. Any time a repair is needed the driver can take the vehicle to an SBB partner repair shop. The repair shop subsequently submits its bid to the Web portal. If it lies within the defined budget limits, the bid is automatically approved; otherwise a fleet management employee at SBB must review the quote. The Web portal enables as well an automated billing of repairs. Only in case the invoice deviates from a freely definable limit the fleet management department is required to intervene. For example if a verification check detects a deviation of more than 10% from the initial bid the repair shop will have to reduce the invoice. Should this not be possible then the repair shop must provide a new bid that can be settled after approval from the SBB fleet management.
Moreover comm.fleet supports a straightforward vehicle procurement at SBB. Ongoing mileage statistics enable evaluations of the remaining vehicle service life as well as the creation of accurate budget plans for new acquisitions.
At SBB the fleet management software comm.fleet has been integrated in the existing SAP process landscape comprising various interfaces such as asset accounting (SAP-FI), supplier and master agreement data, SAP archive as well as SAP HR for employee master data.

Launching comm.fleet at Swiss Federal Railways carries forward the success story of our top-notch product in Europe.
