SOLUTIONS
connect with cutting-edge modular solutions

At Vix, we understand that modern transit systems are supported by multiple partners and technologies. That’s why our Intelligent Transportation Systems integrate essential partners and technologies. And because we use an open architecture system, our solutions are far easier to modify and upgrade.

THE BENEFITS OF OUR OPEN ARCHITECTURE SYSTEMS

SIMPLIFIED INTEGRATION

By providing Open APIs and SDKs, we can simplify how your system works. This makes it easier to improve and develop, giving you full control over implementation and integration.

NO MORE ONE-SIZE-FITS-ALL SOLUTIONS

Open Architecture systems open the door to a modular component architecture, which makes integrating legacy systems and technology far easier.

EASIER CREATION AND UPDATING

Service-oriented architecture (SOA)  is a welcome departure from traditional monolithic systems. It makes creating, debugging and updating systems easier. It also means that whatever you need to introduce for riders, your system will be ready to adapt.

CONNECT ALMOST EVERYTHING TO ALMOST EVERYTHING

With an open approach, you’re not limited in what solutions you can employ within your system. In an age of open source platforms and software, you can say ‘yes’ to the solutions that make the biggest difference for your teams, system and riders.

EXCELLENCE FROM PLANNING THROUGH TO DELIVERY AND MAINTENANCE

Our approach has two key stages:

PROJECT DELIVERY

At this stage we scope and plan your project. During this phase we develop a complete  understanding of your situation, partners and requirements. We draw on specialists from our network, co-ordinate and collaborate with your key partners, and begin the build.

ONGOING OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE

Once up and running, our teams will work with you to ensure that your transit system continues to run smoothly and evolves in line with your riders’ changing behaviors and requirements.

INTELLIGENT TRANSPORTATION SYSTEMS

To open up public transit systems, passengers need access to up-to-the-minute travel information. Our systems and devices deliver instantaneous, live updates via physical displays, audio outputs, websites, and mobile apps. They also provide operators with detailed performance reporting to help optimize services.

AUTOMATED FARE COLLECTION

Providing passengers with more choice, convenience, and access to the best value fares removes many barriers to using public transit. Our market-leading AFC solutions increase usage and satisfaction levels to deliver improved value for money.

OPEN PAYMENTS

People expect to be able to pay for their travel with the tap of a card or a smartphone. Just like they shop. Not having this facility creates a barrier to using public transit. We offer several market-leading products, designed for stations and on-board services. This includes Whisper, a cloud-native, end-to-end ticketing service that enables contactless EMV (cEMV) payments.

DATA INSIGHTS

Our transit analytics solutions knit together the vast array of data sources generated by AFC systems. The securely generated outputs provide actionable insights for teams operating across your organization.

MOBILE TICKETING

Mobile ticketing pools all fare media into a single wallet. This makes it easy for passengers to manage and use their account and any tickets or travel passes on the move via their mobile phone. Our fare collection technologies use APIs to integrate with third-party mobile applications and mobile technologies. This opens public transit systems by making it easy for people to plan, book and pay for their multimodal journeys.

MOBILITY AS A SERVICE

MaaS is very much the future of transit systems and focuses on customer mobility rather than specific transport services.  We put agencies and operators at the center of the MaaS ecosystem by integrating public and private transport services, information, payment, and ticketing onto a single digital platform.
