Further Development of the Integrated Capacity Management Platform InKa

Rail Infrastructure

• Power BI shared datasets and reports via DirectQuery on Amazon Redshift (timetable, construction and capacity data)
• Automated report testing with Playwright in Docker containers, version control with GitLab
• Concept and implementation of user communication (information page, changelog, known bugs)

Initial Situation:

The integrated capacity management platform (InKa) is a monitoring and analysis platform for data from timetable and capacity management: customer orders, infrastructure, timetable operations, construction, as well as route capacity and width. The data is stored and linked in a structured data warehouse. This makes it possible to create complex KPIs across different source systems and display current and future route utilization as well as construction activity across the network. The goal is to improve strategic, medium-term and intra-year planning and provide users with easy access to capacity management analyses.

Measures:

• Enablement: Introduction of Power BI with training and workshops for development teams.
• Consulting & Design: Problem analysis, concepts and solution consulting for reporting requirements; implementation of reporting solution plans.
• Data Model: Development of shared datasets with DirectQuery on Amazon Redshift and import tables; DAX measures for utilization and capacity KPIs.
• Development: Data analysis, data transformation and visualization in Power BI; extension and migration of business applications to Power BI; AI-supported development in VS Code with GitHub Copilot.
• Test Automation: Automated testing of Power BI reports with Playwright; setup of the test environment in Docker containers.
• User Communication: Concept and implementation of a central information page with hot news, changelog and known bugs, access from reports with report filters, updates via Power Automate.
• Deployment: Management of Power BI Deployment Pipelines across the DEV, TEST and PROD environments.
• Agile Working: Work in an agile team according to SAFe (Scaled Agile Framework); refinement of user stories and features including effort estimates in Jira; version control with Git and GitLab.
• Quality & Documentation: Reviews for quality assurance, error analysis and resolution, technical documentation in AsciiDoc and Confluence.

Technologies: Power BI, DAX, Power Query, DirectQuery, Amazon Redshift, Git / GitLab, Deployment Pipelines, Playwright, Docker, AsciiDoc, Power Automate, Jira, Confluence, VS Code with GitHub Copilot, SAFe

Results:
