Freight, Logistics & Rail: Case Studies
- DHL Network Global
- Equipped with aging and non-integrated technologies, the daily management and tracking of hundreds of flight and truck movements worldwide had become costly and inefficient for DHL. EDS upgraded the infrastructure and implemented a new, fully integrated solution based on a number of best-in-class air and road transportation applications.
- Global Logistics Provider
- With profit improvements as the primary motivator, this growing global logistics company set out to transform its business. EDS was the only vendor to offer a thorough long-term IT strategy for optimizing operating performance and powering profits.
- Major North American Airline
- In 2003, the U.S. Postal Service mandated that all commercial air carriers that transport its mail and packages be able to electronically send and receive all communications related to their delivery. With just three months to create the necessary infrastructure, this commercial aviation powerhouse turned to EDS.
- NedTrain
- To deploy staff more efficiently, the company had been considering implementing a mobile solution to keep workers connected in the field. EDS developed a pilot project to assess the effectiveness of the new processes and technology.

- RailAmerica adopted the Web-based Executive Information System EDS developed for RailTex in response to the need to consolidate information across systems and platforms.
- Transport for London
- When London decided to replace life-expired ticketing equipment on its bus and Underground network with an integrated ticketing and revenue system, it chose the TranSys consortium, whose principal partners are EDS and Cubic Transportation Systems, to deliver this ambitious plan.
