Move freight forward with confidence
Plan smarter. Spend wisely. Keep your rail fleet optimization strategy data-driven, efficient, and future-ready.
Optimize your rail fleet with IntelliTrans Fleet Sizing Study
Find the right balance between cost, capacity, and performance. IntelliTrans helps rail shippers determine how many cars they truly need—no more, no less—using data-driven insights to reduce waste, improve efficiency, and support long-term planning.
Smarter planning for railcar utilization
Because every railcar represents capital, insight drives smarter investment. The IntelliTrans Fleet Sizing Study combines data analysis, forecasting, and visualization to help shippers evaluate performance, spot inefficiencies, and plan for continuous fleet optimization.
Fleet sizing study
During operations, the fleet utilization dashboard provides real-time visibility into how your assets move through the network. It highlights velocity, dwell, and idle time to help identify inefficiencies and reallocate resources effectively.
Fleet utilization dashboard
Digitize daily yard operations with features like Switch Lists and Place Railcar workflows that track every move and its purpose. Each event is timestamped for accountability, helping yard crews and dispatchers stay in sync.
ERP integration for data accuracy
On the back end, the fleet management dashboard consolidates key performance metrics—turn rates, empty miles, lease utilization, and car productivity—so you can monitor asset health and justify long-term strategy with confidence.
How IntelliTrans fleet optimization works
The IntelliTrans Fleet Sizing Study blends historical shipment data, operational metrics, and predictive modeling to give shippers a complete view of current and future fleet performance.
