A leading global technology company in the railway and mass transit systems business receives drawings and documents from its own design group, from railway track owners and from a multitude of subcontractors employed to install and maintain their equipment. Scheduling track signal maintenance and upgrades requires precise time-keeping predicated on precise record keeping. Track downtime is too costly to do otherwise.

Trix Organizer is used to control the inflow and outflow of drawings and specifications for individual projects. The system ensures that correct and complete documentation is issued. It also tracks documents checked out for approvals and flags tardy responses. In turn this helps the firm maintain its commitment to timely, high quality, communication with its customers and its contractors. The reporting system also provides ‘proof of delivery’ of distributed documents.

Some documentation is extremely sensitive. Access is strictly controlled by Trix Organizer’s log-in and permission rights.
