NIR-Online Mark Zawisza Interfleet Technology
Purpose Of Seminar • Raise awareness, brief changes and next steps with the forthcoming launch of the NIR-Online application. • In-depth demonstration and review of NIR-Online. • Questions and Answers.
History of NIR-Online • February 2003: Joint Network Rail and ATOC submission to change GE/RT8250 to mandate a web-based system. • May 2004: Formation of NIR User Group. • July 2005: RSSB grant authority to proceed. • August 2005: Software Development contract awarded to Interfleet Technology Ltd. • September 2005 - Ongoing: Software development. • Sunday 26th February 2006: NIR-Online launch.
The Old Approach • Historically distribution could take +12 hours by fax. • Laborious process chasing acknowledgements. • Difficult to maintain audit trails. • Limited ability to deliver safety related information “quickly”. • Duplicated effort across the whole industry.
NIR-Online • Web-based system. • Free of charge at the point of use. • Much quicker dissemination of information. • Improved visibility of information and audit trails. • Deliver information consistently and in a user-friendly format. • Distribution via email / mobile phone SMS message. • Better control over the NIR management process. Less duplication of effort. • http://www.nir-online.net
How Does It Affect Me? • No changes to the NIR process (just the method), however GE/RT8250 (not 3350) will be updated to reflect the implementation of NIR-Online. • We know who formally receives NIRs from the NCC and we have already contacted them. • We have already asked each company to tell us which NIRs are closed (for your company). • We need to know who else needs access… • Check http://www.nir-online.net for up-to-date details. • Any questions?
Company Types • Safety Case Holder • TOCs, FOCs, NR, IMC etc. • Industry Monitor • RSSB and ATOC only • Industry Stakeholder • Manufacturers, Consultants etc. • Second Tier Supplier • OEMs • Service Provider • Interfleet Technology

Demonstration of NIR-Online • Time for the interesting bit… demonstration of the NIR-Online application! • Software Development of NIR-Online is 99.5% complete, so what you will now see is essentially the final version (Beta 2). • Feel free to ask any questions you may have at the break points in the demonstration. • So lets begin!!!
