Features of “Clean My Coach Service” or Coach Mitra Facility

‘Clean My Coach’ is an innovative passenger-centric initiative to ensure quick availability of onboard services in a train. The OBHS Request Automation System has been developed to facilitate real-time on Board Housekeeping Service. The system is primarily a direct requesting service for passengers to use via SMS, for onboard cleaning service of the train.   As per the scheme, for any cleaning requirement in the coach, passenger sends an SMS indicating his PNR through SMS on 58888, Mobile App freely downloadable from Play Store or on cleanmycoach.com. This is immediately acknowledged along with a code. A message is also sent by the server to the mobile number of OBHS staff travelling on the same train along with the details of the passengers such as coach number, berth number. OBHS staff contacts the passengers carry out the cleaning work as per demand. If the passenger is satisfied, he discloses the code received during acknowledgement and OBHS staff, in turn, sends the same code through SMS and the complaint is then treated as closed. If the passenger is not satisfied, he/she doesn’t disclose the code and the complaint is treated as not closed. A three-level of reminder SMS shall be generated by the system if the request is not closed. The system can be assessed using any basic mobile phone. The system, apart from ensuring quick service to the travelling customers, also enables close monitoring of the working of onboard cleaning services.
