thailand railway service design
DESCRIPTION
This project has been initiated by KIDP(Korea Institute of Design Promotion) as ‘international design sharing business’ in order to share and exchange design capability and foster competences. This topline report provides strategic direction and viable implementation plan for Thailand railway service, adopting service design approach and methodologies. This project has been mutually conducted in conjunction with TCDC from project planning, research to strategic planning. The objective of this project is to; provide overall direction in redefining to rep osition Thai railway service for the following 20 years. In order to achieve this goal, system(infra) for the public service and profit generating model and service(model) experience have to be developed to make various service providers and users mutually exchange values and create eco system around railway service. contact us : [email protected] (KIDP)TRANSCRIPT

Findings
Railway expert / Professor Seo at Korea National University of Transportation
“On-time service is the most meaningful aspect that public transportation have – it can lead solving city’s congestion, different perception on time, environmental pollution, traffic accidents, regionalism”
Architecture/ Urban planning expert/ Professor Oh at Korea University
Culture expert / Mr. Yoon at Korail
Thai economy expert/ Mr. Lee at Korea Institute for International Economic Policy
FIELD RCH
“Viewing from the urban perspective, station should be located where local life is (commercial & living) then transportation should connect them”
“Thais’ ‘malling’ culture should be reflected as well as various user segments. Station should be cultural space not just the transportation base”
“Station should play a role as public space where all culture creators get together and create their own culture. It should reflect the demand to generate more demands”
Clear segmenting & targeting on different user !groups to provide differentiated service!
Railway service as the base point !for the public transportation !
Create integrated value for the railway service!(public + commercial service)!

STRATEGIC POSITIONING
Risk increases when new services and user segments need to be invested. Thus, ‘Transportation Hub’ where risk remains at the lowest level but with highest level of urgency in recovering its service quality, should be implemented initially. Strategic direction should gradually expand to long-term plan where railway service is defined with new public values.
‘Transportation Hub’, the strategic direction with the lowest risk level, should be implemented as the first strategic plan by ‘recovering’ core elements of railway service
‘Culture Hub’, placed upper/ later on the positioning matrix, should be implemented strategically when Thai railway service is functionally structured and fit with strong profit models

Raw Storyteller Space containing ‘raw’ identity ‘Raw’ means honesty and truth. Considering Thailand’s current transitional period, space should capture Thailand’s essence and tradition, establishing its innate identity.
Various user segments become storytellers Various visitors to the railway service become storytellers to create their own stories and covey them to others. Space naturally and spontaneously invite users to interact within the space in their own way. By seamless flow of moving line along with visible and clearinformational touch points, users experience the space on their own way by their objectives and purposes.

Flexible way of operating space by seasonally diverging demands
Organic Functionalism Applying flexibility by embracing diversity Users should be able to notice without much efforts how to adopt oneself to the space and activities occurred within. Depending on the amount and density of population within the space, users will automatically change their way of behaviors and interaction. By zoning the space flexibly and systemically, reflecting demand, it should eliminate dead space or dense spots in the space.
Utilizing easily manageable modularization Space should be planned simply and flexibly arranged to be able to be organic to the changes. For this reason, standardized measure and shapes should be adapted. One part should be easily connected and combined with another.

Role of station expanding for !connecting surroundings and infrastructure
Smart Port Physical and systemic connectivity Railway is a symbol of connectivity; it should be the medium for diverse connectivity of not only physical surroundings (other transportation, facilities, commercial area and cities) but also systemic environment (other related industries and infrastructure). MICE is the growing industry where railway could play a significant role in connecting people, facilities and tourism industry.
Shelter & basecamp for the public In the near future, railway system is likely to be automatized by IT. Then, its space will no longer needed to be facilitated as the existing station. Station should play a role of ‘hub’ for the public welfare so people could benefit from diverse ‘connectivity’.

Strategic Opportunities
STRATEGIC PLAN Considering various perspectives of socio economical context of Thailand, railway
service must consider social and public value of ‘diversity’ and interpret it into ‘differentiation’. Different types of users must be accepted as they are but should be served under standardized service system tolerating flexibility. Same stories will betold but will be interpreted and retold in their own way.
Railway service will become standard for public service and social system. Its IT adopted system will call for automation of fundamental services while human resources will be led to research and perform Thai’s unique and differentiated services.
Strong revenue streams and business models will generate other business opportunities expanding boundaries of railway service.
Public service absorbing social diversity will evoke government and society to defy social wickedness and discrimination.
