Customer success story

Real estate lease management system for a Class 1 railroad

CloudMoyo helped a Class I railroad in the United States manage its real estate leases with a contract management solution. They did this by creating a comprehensive store of real estate inventory and by organizing new and legacy agreements in one, central system.

This large project handled over 3,500 legacy contracts, 120,000 documents, and 250 inventory listings. The key benefits of this contract management solution were:

  • Cataloging and proactively management of lease contracts.
  • Automate financial processes like rental payments, price escalation and indexation, variable rent and concessions, and settlements of service charges
  • Gain insights into costs, yield, and occupancy

"We are thrilled to partner with CloudMoyo as we work towards a corporate vision of consistently being the fastest-growing, best-performing, most customer-focused transportation provider in North America."
