5. SWOT ANALYSIS

6. Current operational position
 Faces deficit of Rs 26252.315 Millions
 Shortage of locomotives
 No freight trains
 Half of locomotives are out of order
 Communication system is out dated
 Track is over aged
 Borrowed 40 billion from state bank
 Paying 4.6 billion as a interest to SBP
 Revenue declining consecutively

7. PR COOPERATION WITH CHINA
 China is actively involved in the
development of Pakistan Railways for the
past five years
 China is to export 69 modern locomotive
engines to Pakistan to modernize
Pakistan's railway fleet.
 the first 15 engines will be manufactured in
China and the remainder will be assembled
in Pakistan, with spare parts and
technology provided by China.

8. COMPETITORS OF RAILWAYS
 CNG Buses
 Daewoo Express,
 Kohistan,
 Khan Brothers,
 Skyways and
 Niazi express

9. RESTRUCTURING OF PAKISTAN RAILWAYS
 Time is important to the customers
 The seat reservation system should
be made online
 The first line staff should be trained
 Railways service center should be
initiated
 Proper information should be provided
to the customers
 Railway stations should be clean

10. STRATEGIES FOR TURNAROUND
GOALS
• Ensure availability of sufficient railway
engines
• To ensure that railway trains leave/arrive
at the station at listed time
• Ensure proper maintenance of engines
• Ensure availability of sufficient passenger
coaches
• Utilize cheap coal-driven engines instead
of expensive diesel driven engines

11. PROPOSED GOALS
Goal 1
• Repair old engines at railway workshops
• Import new engines from china
• Import new engines from USA

12. Goal 2
 Task the station managers to start
train on time
 Conduct study to determine
appropriate time duration for each
time route

13. GOAL 3
 Training workshops to enhance
capacity of Pak railway engineers and
technicians
 Routine maintenance schedules to be
strictly followed
 Purchased required railway spare part
from open market (domestically)

14. GOAL 4
 Reduce the number of cargo train
 Repair passenger coaches in
workshop
 Purchase passenger coaches from
china
 Old coal-fire railway engines
refurbished and utilized in on short

15. FEASIBILITY REPORT FOR PROPOSED GOALS
Goal 1
 Pak railway is facing financial crunch,
no new imports are force able in future
 only repair can made locally at Pak
railway workshops

16. GOAL 2
 Disciplining the station passengers
can enhance efficiency in timing
 Good maintenance, done locally, can
ensure zero breaks down

17. GOAL 3
 Routine training and refresher courses
are feasible
 Railways workshops to produce spare
parts

18. GOAL 4
 Good trains are major cost earner
therefore they cannot be reduced
beyond a certain level
 No foreign purchases feasible
 Unfeasible too costly to convert diesel
engine to coal head railway engine

19. RECOMMENDATIONS
 Pakistan Railway requires a radical
restructuring
 Strong leadership at the helm of affairs is
also required
 Railway should treat customer in a
respectful manner
 Trains should depart on time
 On the long routes the number of
stations should be reduced
 The security system should be better
