Teradata congratulates BNSF for being recognized as the 2008 "21st Century Achievement Award" winner for the successful implementation of a locomotive fuel-saving program that cut consumption by 1.5 percent in specific regions. The program is projected to deliver a full 1 percent increase in efficiency after complete implementation. In 2007, BNSF used more than 1.4 billion gallons of fuel.
"By rewarding increased fuel efficiency, BNSF is creating an environment in which engineers strive for peak fuel conservation performance each month, with positive effects on both the BNSF bottom line and the global environment," said Jeff McIntyre, assistant vice president, Technology Services, BNSF. "We are using technology to gain valuable insight to alter what happens in the future, rather than just looking at what has happened in the past. Because BNSF already had in place the means for collecting the information and, in many cases, the actual data needed to perform the analyses, the IT department was able to complete the Fuel MVP project in three months."
