Revenue Analytics Unveils FareVantage, Next-Generation Revenue Management for Passenger Rail

Revenue Analytics’s First-Of-Its-Kind Software Will Give Modern Train Operators Big Gains in Ridership, Revenue, Team Efficiency, and Customer Experience

Revenue Analytics, pioneers in revenue management and predictive analytics solutions, announced the launch of FareVantage, a breakthrough Revenue Management System (RMS) for the passenger rail industry. FareVantage™ is the only RMS powered by advanced analytics and built specifically for modern train operators. With state-of-the-art automation and intelligence, FareVantage™ gives revenue management teams the ability to work faster and smarter, and achieve significant improvements in ridership, revenue, team efficiency, and customer experience.

“That’s why we start and end each software implementation with ‘human intelligence’—tailoring the software to the customer’s needs, ensuring adoption, and providing ongoing support long after launch.”

“Today’s train operators need to maximize ridership and revenue, but their current tools just aren’t up to the challenge. Excel isn’t a real RM system. And homegrown systems and off-the-shelf software either don’t have the sophisticated analytics revenue management teams need, or they’re clunky copies of RM systems designed for other industries decades ago,” said Dax Cross, Chief Executive Officer at Revenue Analytics. “That’s why we’re thrilled to announce FareVantage, revolutionary software designed to meet the unique needs of train operators and powered by the most advanced pricing science and predictive analytics technology available.”
