NS digital inspection solution
Sigmax will provide NS with new hardware and software for public transport service and inspection. In total, more than 6,000 NS employees will be equipped with the new solution: an OV-chip card reader combined with Sigmax’s public transport software.
New Android smart card reader and mobile software for NS staff
NS is replacing its current mobile solution for OV-chipkaart service and inspection equipment. In the tender process, Sigmax’s solution received the highest evaluation.
The selected solution consists of a mobile Android smart card reader combined with mobile smart card software. This enables NS staff to consult OV-chipkaart information so they can provide passengers with the best possible assistance. In addition, NS staff with inspection duties will soon be able to read travel documents and check OV-chipkaarten and barcode e-tickets.
Sigmax will be responsible for the setup, delivery, and management of the new equipment and the associated application. NS will roll out the new equipment in 2016.
