			<content:encoded><![CDATA[On 15th of February 2012 we have presented our new brand FareGo for the first time to a wide specialist audience at the IT-TRANS exhibition in Karlsruhe. The aim of this new branding is to deliver a strong worldwide brand presence. The intention is to create a uniform and dynamic presence of our product and service portfolio.
FareGo provides complete systems solutions for all fare management requirements in the public transport sector. &quot;Our first-class portfolio of solutions is characterised by innovation and high-quality. With FareGo we have now created a brand to reflect these values. This is also evidenced by the new, modern brand profile that is standardised throughout the world&quot; explains Matthias Augustyniak, Dipl.-Ing., Managing Director of Scheidt &amp; Bachmann GmbH. The newly structured and packaged portfolio offers the customer an integrated approach in the design of its fare management system. Moreover, the new brand presence and the modern product design increase the product recognition. 
The FareGo logo is in two shades of blue as a powerful word mark in a distinctive motif. The design of the logo represents the smooth dynamics of public transport made possible by the system manufacturer. The brand name FareGo consists of the English terms “Fare” and “Go”. While “Fare” stands for complete fare collection management, “Go” denotes the essential service which is provided by our products: To allow the users of public transport the go, the start of the journey.
The comprehensive brand architecture has been consistently carried over to our entire portfolio. In keeping with the brand logic the previously separate products have been grouped into product lines:<br /><br />

			<title>Re-Equipment of the Traditional Tube in Glasgow</title>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[Since the foundation more than 100 years ago the tube in the biggest Scottish city, Glasgow, has been carrying thousands of people safely and on time each day. However, the last all-embracing modernization of the stations has been 30 years ago. To that effect you can see the ravages of time at many places. Therefore the operating company SPT (Strathclyde Partnership for Transport) decided to modernize the traditional tube system by investing in new designs and innovative ideas. So that the tube will shine in new splendour 
They planed not only constructional measures at old stations but also to speed up and to simplify all processes around “buying a ticket”. Therefore you have to implement the smart card processing in the whole system. So you also have to homogenize the look and feel of the field devices with the appearance of the stations. SPT engages Scheidt &amp; Bachmann to implement this challenging project. The huge experiences of Scheidt &amp; Bachmann at the market in UK with more than 2000 field devices will be upgraded by this complex system as a part of a further customer.
Based on the modernization for SPT 15 stations will be equipped with 77 smart slim line gates, 34 ticket vending machines in the style of our TicketXpress and 18 ticket office machines. Moreover some compact and functional handhelds are part of delivery. For administrating of the whole system the high-performance Scheidt &amp; Bachmann back office system will be implemented. It provides functions for control, management, analysis and statistics. 
Contactless smartcards, which comes up to ITSO standard, function as tickets and provide both operator and consumer a highest flexible handling.
The modernization of the stations and the installation and launch of the fare collection system should be finished on time when the Commonwealth Games are in 2014 so that the sports-delighted crowd of people will be carried at ease to the venue. &nbsp;]]></content:encoded>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[The Operation Management of the business division Fare collection systems started a process to professionalize the project management in February 2010. The aim is to strengthen the project management as a main competence for our customers. The step was necessary because of the increasing quantity and complexity of FCS-projects and the associated rising challenge for the project managers.
The company decided to choose PRINCE2 as the applied project management method. PRINCE2 provides a standardised guideline and process framework for the project managers. PRINCE2 creates a controlled environment, coherent standards, a homogeneous project language and divides a overall project into controllable phases.
The advantages for our customers and staff are obvious:
<ul><li>Assurance that the projects are accomplished according to an internationally accepted method</li><li>The division of a project into management phases makes prompt controlling possible </li><li>The accomplishment of projects with more then two involved fractions is simplified since all procedures are standardised</li><li>The customer takes part in the project board and obtains a higher transparency and influence </li><li>Exact conformability through the definition of business cases / quality criteria / risks&nbsp;</li></ul>
In 2010 all of our project managers underwent an intensive PRINCE2 training to make familiar with the new project method and to adopt the know-how for coming challenges.]]></content:encoded>
