Client Vision
KEC International wanted to modernize how its teams managed railway electrification block hours. Its existing workflow depended on paper notes, WhatsApp messages, and manual coordination, resulting in delays, safety risks, and zero real-time visibility for leadership.
Their goal was to build a fast, reliable Progressive Web App (PWA) that worked seamlessly even in low-connectivity zones and acted as the operational backbone of every block hour, from guiding teams, preventing delays, improving safety, and ensuring full accountability from planning to execution.


TrackPlanner was built to become the single source of truth for all block-hour activities, helping KEC execute projects faster, safer, and with full accountability.
The Market Challenges
Railway electrification projects operate in high-pressure, time-bound conditions, where even a small delay can disrupt the entire chain. A single missed update can impact:
1. Live Train operation and Tracking
2. Work safety
3. Frequent miscommunication
4. Task sequencing
5. Material movement and Visibility
The Core Requirements
To streamline block-hour execution and bring control, accuracy, and speed to field operations, the client needed a digital platform that could centralize readiness, track resources, and eliminate manual errors. The core requirements included:
Material Readiness
A central system comparing kilometre-wise material demand with live inventory, instantly flagging shortages and notifying store teams before operations begin.
Site Readiness
A digital checklist that confirms every kilometre is ready for block-hour work, preventing delays and ensuring smooth on-ground execution.
Manpower Readiness
A smart labour tool checking skills, availability, preventing double-booking, and sending real-time updates to subcontractors for accurate manpower planning.
Material Issuance with Barcode Scanning
A barcode-driven issuance workflow matching materials with SAP inventory, ensuring accurate loading, faster processing, and complete traceability for store operations.
Truck GPS Tracking
A live GPS system tracking truck movement, calculating ETA, and alerting teams whenever delays or route deviations affect delivery timelines.
Labour Attendance
A biometric verification process confirming assigned workers are present, reducing mismatch, preventing fraud, and improving on-site block-hour compliance.
Dashboards for Leadership
A real-time command center providing KPIs, readiness status, site performance, and comparative insights to help leadership make faster, informed decisions.
Offline-First PWA
An offline-capable platform enabling teams to record tasks and checklists in remote zones, auto-syncing all data when connectivity returns.
Multi-User Access Control
A secure role-based access system ensuring each user from supervisors to leadership, gets the right tools needed for their specific workflows.
Solution Provided - AI-Ready Progressive Web App
We built KEC TrackPlanner, a complete, AI-ready Progressive Web App designed to manage every stage of a railway electrification project. The platform brings site teams, store teams, project managers, and leadership into one connected ecosystem, ensuring accuracy, speed, and complete project visibility across all locations.
Cross-Functional PWA
TrackPlanner is a cross-functional PWA that ensures uninterrupted project management in remote railway regions. It keeps site teams, store managers, and project leads connected, automatically syncing all updates once connectivity is restored and enabling smooth operations.
Material Readiness Engine
The system pulls kilometre-wise material requirements, compares them with real-time store inventory, and instantly flags shortages. It automatically alerts the store in-charge so the team can arrange materials before block-hour. This prevents costly delays and save money.
Site Readiness Checklist
Supervisors complete simple, structured readiness checklists for each kilometer. If anything is missing or delayed, the Project Manager receives an instant alert along with deadlines, ensuring that every stretch is fully prepared before work begins.
Manpower Readiness System
Supervisors can tag labour based on skills, while the system checks if the same workers are booked at another site. It also sends auto-SMS notifications to subcontractors and maintains a master record with biometric details. This helps eliminate double-booking.
GPS-Based Truck Tracking
Every truck carrying material is tracked from the moment it leaves the supplier. The system provides live location, real-time ETA, and delay alerts to all stakeholders. This removes guesswork and helps teams plan work more efficiently.
Material Issuance & Barcode Workflow
TrackPlanner matches site requirements with available inventory, supports barcode scanning during issue and loading, and updates SAP automatically. This reduces manual errors, prevents wrong items from being dispatched, and brings full traceability into the material movement.
Biometric Labour Attendance
Before block-hour, supervisors collect biometric attendance on-site. The system matches it against the assigned labour list and sends alerts if there is a mismatch. This improves safety, compliance, and accountability during critical work windows.
