The specific objective

Development of existing C-D infrastructures in order to develop and manufacture new types of components for electric locomotives (LE). The most important of these are required by normative, technical, economic and market considerations:

- AC traction by replacing DC traction;

- ensuring interoperability on European railways;

- reducing electricity consumption;

- increasing the reliability of electric locomotives;

- reduction of maintenance costs.

​

The arrangements and endowments proposed by this project will develop the C-D infrastructure of S.C. SOFTRONIC S.R.L. and implicitly the capacity to develop new products to be introduced into manufacturing in its own workshops and integrated on EL (Electric Locomotives). For new or modern EL's, it is necessary to develop new components in order to obtain new facilities and performance:

- interoperability;

- increased reliability;

- reduced energy consumption;

- reduction of maintenance costs;

- increasing the service life between planned repairs;

- increasing the quality and efficiency of the research-development activity by performing specific tests of the EL components;

- increasing the performance of products introduced into manufacturing in our own workshops resulting from applied research activities;

- creating new jobs in the research department, attracting young people in the research-development activity.

​

The project aims at developing the C-D infrastructure in the location of S.C. SOFTRONIC S.R.L. from Calea Severinului, no. 40, CRAIOVA, DOLJ, with a total usable area of ​​6,099 sqm.

This will be achieved by arranging 6 new research-development laboratories with a total area of ​​approx. 1100 sqm, the acquisition of specialized stands, measuring and control equipment, calculation technique, increasing the number of employees in the research-development activity.

Informative material project launch seminar 23.01.2009

Through the project "Training of personnel for the manufacture, assembly and service of modernized block components for diesel and electric locomotives", SC SOFTRONIC SRL wishes for the employed staff to increase knowledge and acquire specific skills in accordance with the needs identified for the proper development of production. maintenance and service. The project meets the objectives of the company's strategy in terms of specialization of operational staff by covering the training needs.

​

Our proposal contributes to the first objective of the Program “Development and implementation of multiannual policies and programs for economic and social cohesion, through investment projects in priority sectors, in accordance with the provisions of the National Development Plan and supporting economic development at national and regional level. the increase of the general potential at national level and at the level of the eight development regions, as well as of the diminution of the economic and social disappearances between them ”.

​

The project aims to achieve the priority of the program "Promoting lifelong learning for the qualification and retraining of the workforce" through actions that lead to the acquisition of specific sets of knowledge and skills to train skills in occupations required in the labor market.

​

S.C. SOFTRONIC S.R.L., founded in 1998, is a manufacturer of block components for electric and diesel locomotives. Through applied research efforts carried out in their own laboratories, block components were developed and put into production in their own production workshops for the replacement, in the modernization process, of the physically or morally worn components of the electric locomotives. In this way, for the modernized locomotives, superior performances and the observance of the conditions imposed by the new norms (granted with EU norms) that regulate the transport on the railway were obtained.

​

In order to put into practice the new solutions, it is necessary the specialization of the operative personnel in the field of execution, assembly, maintenance and service of the equipment that is produced in order to be mounted on the modernized and / or repaired locomotives. The creation of specialization programs at the workplace of the operative personnel, are priorities in the development strategy of the company's human resources. The implementation of "Softronic" solutions on the existing locomotives in the railway parks in the country and in the countries where the Romanian locomotives were exported determines the need to specialize their own employees, a decisive factor for increasing the quality of products and obtaining high productivity.

​

The general objective of the project: Promoting the concept of lifelong learning for employees in small and medium enterprises, as a premise of the employability of the workforce in the South-West Oltenia region.

​

Specific objective: Specialization of the operational staff of SC Softronic SRL in the field of manufacture, assembly and service of components for electric locomotives. Quantitative results: 6 specialization programs followed by 80 employees, 80 employees certified in the specialization programs carried out. Qualitative results: improving the skills of personnel in the locomotive modernization sector by developing and promoting specialization programs aimed at obtaining knowledge and skills in a limited area of ​​a basic occupation, creating conditions for promotion within the company, obtaining higher earnings, changing mentality through the concept of lifelong learning. Results: impact: dissemination of the model of good practice in continuous professional specialization for SMEs in the region.
