10:10 AM INTERNATIONAL CASE STUDY: Digital Innovation at OBB: Transitioning to a Digitised Railway
OBB (Austrian Federal Railway) is embarking on numerous digitised projects to integrating into the railway system. Yet this is not just large disruptive changes like autonomous driving, which is often the misconception of digitised railways. Instead, this includes a mix of augmented and virtual reality usage for training, education and maintenance, 3D printing as well as interpreting big data for predictive maintenance. In this international case study, Gerald will focus on OBB’s digital innovation projects, reporting on learnings, experiences and failures, discussing:
- Insights into key projects and prototypes of digitisation at OBB and what has worked to unlock real productivity for business development
- Developing a digitisation strategy in the right way to understand which aspects of digitisation to tackle first
- Identifying the right suppliers and consultants to deliver the best initiatives that match the capability of the organisation, while still putting the customer at the forefront
