Rail Transport Leader on the Right Track to Cut Costs With Tablet PC Reporting Solution
Overview Conductors for BNSF Railway Company report on work events and rail-car status for management and customers, but using manual reporting methods to enter inventory data into a mainframe computer resulted in excessive clerical costs. The company automated inventory reporting with a mobile computing platform. BNSF chose to replace the original hardware with the Tablet PC running the Microsoft Windows XP Tablet PC Edition operating system. The Tablet PC is as powerful as a desktop PC, with built-in wireless capabilities that support the company's plans for wireless networks. BNSF conductors use the Tablet PC to upload inventory information from the rail yard to headquarters.
