MP2 Crew Pairing Optimizer is a high performing optimizer that guarantees an optimal crew pairing solution.
An integrated crew pairing optimizer allows immediate and accurate crew consequences to be assessed due to changed train set assignment or timetables. The module is also perfect for evaluation of a timetable from a crew feasibility and cost point of view, reporting crew expenses and resources needed for any timetable.
MP2 Crew Pairing Optimizer produces complete, optimal and legal crew pairing solutions.
The optimizer handles multiple bases and multiple legality rule sets making it a rapid tool for simulations of changed prerequisites and timetables. It can be run in either dated or typical week/day mode and it deals with varying crew complement and base restrictions.
All cost reports are broken down on salaries, accommodations, allowances, ground transport and deadheading. The Optimizer also contains features for rapid manual design of pairings and the possibility to lock certain combinations.
The system may also load partial pairing solutions to be maintained during an optimization run.
For advanced users the optimization process can be tuned by altering parameter settings.
