The Stratio Project with SBS Transit
The SBST team had been exploring cost-effective solutions to increase fleet uptime, reduce costs and improve customer satisfaction. The project with Stratio, currently in about 1000 buses of its fleet, is supporting the company in optimising its maintenance processes and improving bus reliability to serve the main goal of delivering a better service for commuters.
Ang Soon Yeong, Head of the Bus Engineering Systems & Technology Department at SBST, shared his opinions with us about working with Stratio.
Ang Soon Yeong, said:The Stratio Platform enables real-time fault detection and predictions for our buses. This allows for timely repair recalls with the workshops being alerted before actual breakdowns happen, reducing the occurrence of bus breakdowns in the process. It allows for some bus components to be utilised beyond their preventive replacement cycles, reducing costs and wastage. The solution taps into onboard data without the need for additional sensors, making it easily scalable and extremely cost-effective.
