MADRID -- (Business Wire)

Metro de Madrid, the third largest metro system in the world, with the help of Accenture (NYSE:ACN) together with GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms, a unit of GE Enterprise Solutions, has successfully introduced a program to transform its maintenance operations and provide higher standards of transportation services. The program, known as ‘COMMIT’, aims to increase Metro de Madrid’s operational performance and raise the level of its customer service.

To meet Metro de Madrid’s operational goals, Accenture implemented a new operational maintenance model and designed a technology infrastructure to manage in real-time the installation of metro’s equipment such as elevators, escalators, energy distribution and management, telecommunications, hydraulic pumps, ticketing and turnstiles. The model comprises monitoring and automation tools with capabilities including advanced diagnostics of failures and incidents to minimize service disruptions, the analysis of incidents and equipment faults to reduce maintenance costs and maximize manpower resources, and remote maintenance and remote monitoring of installations of equipment to increase efficiency. GE Fanuc Intelligent Platform’s supervisory control and data acquisition software suite, Proficy iFIX, was implemented as a part of the solution. iFIX provides real-time information management to help Metro de Madrid drive better analytics and leverage more reliability, visibility into day-to-day operations, flexibility and scalability across their enterprise.
