The development platforms will be SAP Cloud Platform and SAP HANA.

Other areas for joint innovation include digital locomotive lifecycle management based on a digital twin, the Internet of Things for industry and transport.

2016-2017

Centralized payment management systems, byudzheta­mi, supply, sales, consolidation, corporate directories (nomenclature, cost items, DDS items, etc.) are deployed at the management company level. Each company has implemented a local version of the unified corporate information system that complies with the accounting policy of the holding. All in­formatsionnyye systems (both centralized and local) operate according to the same standards and are integrated with each other into a single information network by corporate data channels^[3]

Reduce costs

2017 was declared a cost year in the holding, and it is quite natural that cost reduction work is an absolute priorite­tom in choosing the directions of development of information business systems. It is planned to reduce costs in two large areas - reducing the actual cost of production and reducing operating costs. The cost reduction is supposed to be carried out at all stages of the product life cycle: from design development to service support.

At the initiative of the Directorate for Economics and Finance, DIT employees developed a draft conceptual schedule of measures to reduce costs at the holding's enterprises using IT systems. It is a comprehensive document that combines the areas of cost reduction, organizational tools and measures that determine the responsible and IT systems necessary for the effective operation of the organizational tools and methods being implemented.

On the IT side, three systems are key support systems for cost reduction:

• Integrated Material and Production Planning System (EPSM).
• Design and Process System for Production Preparation ­.
• Business Intelligence (BI) -based enterprise analytics system.

KSMPP is one of the modules of the unifitsirovan­noy corporate information system that provides an end-to-end process for planning and monitoring enterprise resources from the production program and operational production management to demand planning and control of the supply of inventory. This module provides MRP ERP Enterprise Resource Planning (Enterprise Resource Planning) functionality in enterprise information systems that complies with the globally recognized Enterprise Resource Planning Standard II.

The result of the implementation is optimal procurement planning and reduction of free, not involved in the production of inventories, release of working capital. Since the share of material costs at Transmashholding enterprises reaches 80%, the economic effect can be very significant. For example, at DMZ and MVM, the total effect of implementation in the initial stages amounted to 400 million rubles (due to a reduction in reserves in work in progress and optimization of the regulatory framework).

The main necessary element of the successful implementation of the material and production planning system is high-quality production regulatory information (NSI), namely information on the material structure of the product and labor standards. At the same time, the requirements for the quality of NSI during the implementation of MMCP are significantly increased. This is due to the fact that KSMPP is a rigid system, and if some specific material is included in the design documentation, it means that this material should be purchased. Not some similar one, but one that is defined by design and technological norms or is clearly acceptable for use through a replacement map.

The most reliable source of regulatory reference information at the enterprise should be the KTP system - design and technological preparation of production of the PDM (Product Data Management) type. And that is why it is the second most important element in the successful implementation of the cost reduction project.

PDM systems have long been used in the design and technological divisions of TMX Group of Companies, however, the information on the composition of the product located in them is mainly used by the designers and technologists themselves and is not yet used enough to solve the problems of operational material planning. As a result, the nomenclature directories of PDM systems and accounting systems are not connected, the relevance of information in PDM systems is insufficient for planning purposes.

Most of these issues are supposed to be solved in 2017 as part ­ the comprehensive ERP&PDM project, in which work on updating PDM system data is carried out in parallel with the implementation of ERP systems in such a way that updated information on the material structure of the PDM product is immediately used to solve planning problems in ERP. This pozvo­lit to combine PDM and ERP systems into a single loop and automatically provide high quality regulatory information.

For the automated exchange of information about the material structure of products between information systems, a corporate standard for the exchange of engineering data will be used, which will be "understandable" to all Transmashholding information systems. Such a standard will allow you to transfer data from one information system to another, from one enterprise to another, collect in the management company or transfer to organizations engaged in repair and maintenance of rolling stock. Now the pilot version of such a standard is already working at the Tver Carriage Building Plant.

Business analytics

Current and reliable information about the material structure of the product is not only data for material and production planning, but also the basis for cost control and cost reduction at all stages of the product life cycle from design and production to service. The economic potential for reducing material costs cannot be overestimated. Iskho­ya of the output indicators laid down in the Transmashholding development strategy calculated until 2020, a reduction in material cost by one percent gives a billion rubles of direct effect per year.

At the stage of design development, it is important to be able to correctly calculate and evaluate the sebestoi­most of the product being developed so that it is possible to make adjustments to the design and reach the specified target cost, and at the stage of experimental and serial production, it is important to be able to practically realize everything laid down during design development and keep the target ­ cost during the production process.

The design stage is key for managing the cost of products; according to Western companies, up to 80% of the cost optimization opportunities are present at this stage of the life cycle. To manage the cost at the development stage, the methodologies Design to cost, FSA (functional-cost analysis), etc. are used. The implementation of these methodologies requires serious support from IT.

The next stage of cost reduction is production cost management. This task is divided into several key areas: cost control, selection of optimal suppliers, monitoring of purchase prices. The most effective solution of these tasks is possible only when analyzing at the level of individual cost elements, for the material part of costs - at the level of individual item items. The situation is complicated by the fact that there are a lot of nomenclature positions in the structure of material cost, tens of thousands of elements, and it is almost impossible to analyze them manually, without the use of special technical means. To accomplish this, you plan to use BI (Business Intelligence) class systems.

Business Intelligence (business intelligence, business analysis) is a special software created for consolidation, analysis and visualization of information. BI technologies allow you to analyze large amounts of information, focusing on users only on key performance factors, modeling the outcome of various options for action, tracking the results of decision-making. Business Intelligence is relevant to the process of turning data into knowledge and knowledge into business actions for benefit.

This direction in Transmashholding is just beginning to develop, but it is with the help of BI systems that it is supposed to visualize, make "tangible," give the business "feel" the effect of introducing complex systems for managing material resources and finances at enterprises. And the first step on this path is to so­zdaniye the corporate BI-system of element-by-element cost analysis.

Using large amounts of data, specialists from specialized departments can easily identify factors that affect the reduction or increase in the cost of products, compare one reporting period with another, and analyze data for an individual enterprise or the entire group of companies as a whole. Within the framework of the current stage of development of BI-systems, a small pilot project has already been implemented to analyze the cost of single-storey and double-storey cars of the Tver Machine-Building Plant, within the framework of which a parallel analysis of the cost of their production was carried out "manually" and in the BI-system. The results coincided with an accuracy of one percent, while the "manual" analysis took about two weeks, and in the pilot BI system, after loading data into it and implementing the necessary algorithms, everything was calculated in a few seconds.

The priority step is to expand the BI system to the target and actual cost of production of the largest enterprises of TMX Group and to include element-by-element cost analysis procedures in the budget process.

In general, with the help of BI systems, we plan to gradually change the corporate approaches to information processing, create corporate data marts and significantly reduce the volume of manually developed Excel reporting. All this should help departments move from collecting and composing reports to analyzing data.
