Sažetak
The implementation of fleet management in the train traction activity is a must in the conditions of market operation of the railway sector, since good management of traction units has not alternative. The crucial issue of implementing such sophisticated tools is in real environment, and therefore SWOT analysis of the most important technological indicators has been carried out, in order to determine the most efficient method of its implementation. The defined technological indicators and the respective criteria have been used to evaluate the possible implementation of the total fleet management system in the HŽ Vuča vlakova (HŽ-Train Traction) company. The pilot project carried out in the activities of the HŽ-Train Traction has resulted in great savings at the annual level in fuel consumption, creating also the preconditions for the savings in fleet maintenance and work force recruitment. Based on the results of the pilot project the methodology for efficient implementation of the fleet management was defined. The defined methodology was tested in real conditions and can be implemented at any company which provides services of train traction or manoeuvring of locomotives.
