Iarnród Éireann (IÉ) is currently engaged in a number of initiatives and activities which together will focus the business on its strategic objectives and aim to increase the efficiency and effectiveness of the business' delivery, whilst maintaining the performance of the railway system and the quality of the service provided to its customers.
In 2012 IÉ was involved in two benchmarking exercises with other European railways to compare operating costs, performance and revenues, and also rolling stock maintenance.
As part of these benchmarking activities, three internal workshops were held by IÉ to identify opportunities to improve the performance of the railway, simplify and improve processes, increase effectiveness and to reduce the costs of the IÉ business. These focused on:
— Train Operations;
— Infrastructure Management;
— Asset Management.
During 2014, IÉ plans to develop this benchmarking analysis further. To support this, IÉ intends to put in place a Panel of service providers from which assistance may be sought in a number of specific areas:
