Logica and Qnamic AG partner to provide unique ‘all-in-one’ solution for Intelligent Rail Management

22 September 2010


Logica, a leading business and technology service company, today announced a global partnershipwith Qnamic AG, a leading supplier of software solutions for the rail industry. With the Qnamic and Logica partnership rail companies will now be able to substantially, and measurably, improve efficiency and productivity, proactively reduce cost and swiftly execute advanced production and resource planning.

RailOpt creates an intelligent Resource Planning/Production and Management solution that integrates complex and disparate rail management systems into a single consolidated view for planning production and resource deployment. This partnership will bring benefit to rail throughout the world by combining Logica's deep industry expertise, global consulting and systems integration capabilities with Qnamic’s innovative RailOpt software suite.

The privatization of the rail market, the changing business conditions and the demand for truly intelligent integrated end-to-end logistics solutions has required rail companies to seek new innovative solutions for their changing business needs.

Speaking about the alliance, Tomas Berg, International Rail Expert, Logica, said, ”Our partnership with Qnamic uniquely addresses the demanding environment rail enterprises are faced with. We are setting a new de-facto standard in Rail, with all the key ingredients: people, access to killer applications and a deep history of innovative solutions in the rail and wider transport sectors. Together with Qnamic, we can provide the most comprehensive solution-portfolio, offering rail operators an end-to-end toolkit for rail operations management.”

Dirk Pfeiffer, CEO of Qnamic AG, welcomed the partnership, “With Logica as a global partner we will be much better positioned to provide RailOpt to the global marketplace. We look forward to supporting the rail industry together and offering other customers in the transport sector the capability to improve efficiency, quality, and cost effectiveness with greatly enhanced transparency.”
