Abstract
One of the priority tasks for Russian Railways in import substitution is the automation of activities for managing production assets in the infrastructure complex and railway infrastructure facilities, which is currently being implemented in the Unified Corporate Automated Infrastructure Management System (EC ACIMS), operating on a platform developed by the foreign company Project Software & Development.
The article examines in detail the structure of the EC ACIMS, the interaction of its modules and subsystems, as well as problems and omissions associated with the interaction of the ACS PA CDI systems in the operation of track machines. The ACS PA CDI and AS KRSPS software packages only collect and analyze data from track machines on the number of completed works, but the task for the performance of work by the teams of track machines is still issued by the work manager, due to which errors may occur in the technologies of the work performed, then these errors can increase when the drivers enter data into the work of the machines. To improve the quality of the work performed by track machines, it is necessary to eliminate the human factor from the process of entering data into the work of the machines. For this purpose, it is proposed to develop an additional control unit and integrate it into the KRSPS AS system. The development and implementation of a new structure of software packages with two-way communication between the ACS PA CDI and the AS KRSPS when receiving information will prevent deviations from the required parameters of machines during the operation, which will improve the quality of the work performed.
