Electronic services

VR Transpoint has for a long time invested in developing its electronic services. At present we can offer our customers an increasing number of electronic services which help make the whole logistical chain more efficient. Electronic services are available in Finnish (with the exception of RailTrace which is also available in English) for our contract customers in Finland.

Electronic services:

  • improve the flow of information
  • reduce errors
  • reduce manual paper work
  • avoid duplicate work
  • speed up processes
  • harmonize operations
  • increase cost-efficiency

      Information services:

      Information on VR Transpoint services is available on our Internet site and from pages requiring registration. On the Internet you can find e.g.

    • information bulletins
    • news
    • transport instructions and regulations
    • maps
    • transport documents

        Contract customers can also control several operative services online:

      • management and sending of transport documents
      • ordering of transports
      • tracking of shipments

          Data transmission

          Electronic data transmission saves work and time. Thanks to data transmission the parties of a transport chain can communicate from one system to another. The EDI system (Electronic Data Interchange) used in data transmission between the customer, the authorities and VR Transpoint speeds up data transmission, reduces the need for paper documents, increases the availability of rolling stock and hastens deliveries of goods. An electronic invoicing system is also used which makes it possible to receive invoices in an electronic form.

          Individual service concepts

          We develop our electronic services in cooperation with our customers. Service needs are determined by mapping our common processes and identifying the points where electronic business services can offer significant benefits. The service is then planned, implemented and tested in cooperation with our customers. In addition to basic services we are able to realize customer-specific service concepts based on individual needs.

          If you would like to get more information on our electronic services, please contact your sales contact person. Our experts are ready to assist you in choosing the services you need and in ensuring a smooth introduction of the services.
