Globehopper Gateway Software

Container Digitalization Use Case Overview

Utilization Optimization

PAIN POINT

Railcars are often underutilized due to inconvenient positioning in terminals, sidings, and storage tracks
The full revenue potential of the fleet is not exploited as underutilized railcars are not sufficiently matched with clients

SOLUTION

Globehopper enables utilization tracking per railcar along with downloadable reports and insights
Underutilized railcars in terminals can be identified, and additional visibility allows for easier matching of railcars with potential clients

Maintenance Mileage

PAIN POINT

Limited transparency on the mileage and health status of wheelsets leads to excessive safety margins on maintenance cycles
Assets are more often maintained than necessary, increasing maintenance costs and unnecessary downtime

SOLUTION

Globehopper enables precision tracking of actual mileage travelled and can trigger maintenance needs on a single asset, or wheelbase
Precision tracking also benefits fleet disposition, as railcars with low mileage can be prioritized for deployment

Disposition Improvement

PAIN POINT

Lack of transparency often leads to long unloading cycles where customers exceed their free unloading period
Railcar operators have insufficient evidence about unloading time and lose revenue due to the unavailability of their railcars

SOLUTION

Globehopper enables the status and position of railcars to be captured and allows for proactive railcar management and optimized deployment of railcars
Produce accurate billing and combine solutions to track and manage loading/unloading cycles safely and efficiently
