PKP CARGO INTERNATIONAL, a member of the PKP CARGO Group, has signed a contract with Betrian Group for the deployment of the NavTrain digital driving assistant and the NavSim driver training simulator. The aim of this cooperation is to enhance operational safety, improve driver awareness, and accelerate the digital transformation of railway operations.
This step brings railway transport one step closer to a digital future built on smart technologies and data infrastructure. At the same time, it confirms the growing trust of major railway operators in the solutions developed by Betrian Group. The NavTrain system will be launched into full operation at PKP CARGO INTERNATIONAL in the coming weeks.
“Train drivers face complex decisions every day. We want to provide them with tools that help them navigate more easily, anticipate risks, and boost overall operational efficiency,” says Pavel Bezděčík, Director of Railway Operations at PKP CARGO INTERNATIONAL.
“We are pleased to rely on an experienced Czech partner and believe our cooperation with Betrian will help raise our training and operational standards to a new level,” Bezděčík adds.
“We’re thrilled to see NavTrain in the hands of more and more drivers — and to welcome PKP CARGO INTERNATIONAL as a new user. The trust of large railway operators continues to drive us forward,” said Petr Sec, representative of Betrian Group.
“We’re also looking forward to the moment when Správa železnic launches Digital Orders — NavTrain is ready to support them, and we are fully prepared for this new era of railways.”
