Abstract
The overhaul of railway braking devices is a complex process. It relies on many supporting processes such as spare parts production and supplying. In order for the overhaul to proceed smoothly and all the required work tobeaccomplishedefficiently, an appropriate planning system has to be applied. It must be accompanied by good process coordination and integration of all activities. In this paper is presented a case study of the overhaul process, the proposed planning system and integrative information system support.
