As Indonesia's largest rail transportation operator, managing over 8,260 kilometers of railway, safety and efficiency remain pivotal amidst increasing operational challenges. The rail network is essential for moving both passengers and freight. This vital role comes with significant safety challenges, particularly at level crossings.
Between January and August 2024, 535 collisions were reported at level crossings, primarily involving vehicles and pedestrians. While driver-related errors are rare, these incidents continue to disrupt operations and pose significant safety risks.
These challenges are particularly noticeable in South Sumatra, a key region for Indonesia's mining and plantation industries. With 9.3 billion tons of coal reserves and producing 2.82 million tons of crude palm oil annually (9.1% of the national output), the region is critical for resource transportation. The high freight volume and safety concerns highlight the need for solutions like FleetSense to improve efficiency and reduce risks.
Telkomsel offers an innovative solution through FleetSense, an IoT AI-powered platform to monitor railway operations in real time. In partnership with Indonesia's largest rail operator, Telkomsel FleetSense helps improve safety and efficiency by providing actionable insights, detecting risks, and preventing potential incidents on the tracks.
Launched in collaboration with Indonesia’s largest rail operator in Q3 2024, Telkomsel FleetSense is now integrated into more than 200 locomotives in South Sumatra. The platform addresses main challenges with various features. It provides live streaming and playback for real-time monitoring and actionable evidence, while also tracking driver status to detect fatigue and distractions. Proactive alerts warn of excessive speed and collisions, and location tracking ensures accurate monitoring of train movements. FleetSense replaces old systems, making rail operations safer and more efficient.
The initial implementation of FleetSense had improved operational excellence by generating over 100,000 safety alerts in the first month. These real-time insights helped identify areas for improvement, allowing operators to refine procedures and reduce delays and incidents.
In addition to enhancing safety, FleetSense also contributes to business sustainability. For freight trains transporting millions of tons of essential commodities each year, reducing delays and safety risks is crucial to maintaining stable revenue. This technology ensures daily operational efficiency while supporting long-term reliability and sustainability.
With these advanced solutions, Telkomsel FleetSense significantly enhances fleet safety and operational efficiency. As a smart, all-in-one solution, it goes beyond simple monitoring to transform fleet management. This innovative solution ensures better safety, higher productivity, and stronger compliance for smoother operations. Make your fleet smarter, safer, and more efficient with the right technology.
