Background of IRTS P 5
 The Problem of TD Integrated Solution
Without Unified Planning and Design
Each System was developed independently
Basic data is defined repeatedly in different systems with different protocols
(users, stations, sections etc)
Same business was designed with different operation interface, different demonstration
Technology platform(network, datacenter etc) cannot be shared

Without Unified Communication Protocol

Independent information-exchange protocol between each two systems
Lake of scalability especially for new systems

Maintenance is divided into different Units according to Systems

Different units construct ,maintain and manage different systems
Information silo
Fragmentation
Prone to prevaricate and dodge between different units

Transport Systems in Enterprise-Owned Railways

The China Railway

Variety of business systems in operation
Products and experiences are shared with enterprises-owned rail
ways

Enterprises-Owned Railways
Take the advantages of centralized management
Unite planning, standards, resource and management
Tailor the railway transportation systems

 Introduction of Shuohuang Railway

One of the main channel of coal transportation in China

Enterprise-owned railway dedicated for freight traffic
Length is 680km with 43 stations
16 pairs of heavy-haul trains and 105 pairs of normal trains are operated
everyday
Annual traffic volume is up to 2B ton

IRTS in Shuohuang Raiway

From the perspective of micro-transportation concept, each business system, aro
und the CTC system, was unified with same standards and put into operation grad
ually
From the perspective of enterprise informatization construction, the IRTS was pla
nned together with ERP system, OA system, etc
Innovate practically on base of experience in the China Railway
Focus on centralization of data, maintenance and management
