I consider SM_17 Facilties on location to be sensible with a view to uniform data collection. As SBB Cargo, the business value is not yet clear to me, as today this task is guaranteed by the infrastructure manager. As a company, I therefore do not yet have a return on investment - no simplification of processes, less administrative effort or a gain in time, do I?
