About Us 

The Rail Alliance is THE business to business networking organisation for the rail industry.

Spanning all aspects of the railway sector and its supporting industries, The Rail Alliance embraces both current and aspirational involvment and provides you with opportunities to Network, Collaborate and Innovate with both suppliers and customers, in order to maintain and grow the prosperity and sustainability of YOUR business.

At a time when the major customers in the railway industry are looking to reduce their supplier base it is absolutely vital that companies look to new and innovative ways of ensuring that the goods and services that they are offering are not neglected.

This is core Rail Alliance territory; we are a railway business network unlike any other and have been created specifically to help the rail industry capitalise on the multi billion pound pool of existing and future opportunities that will be essential elements in the delivery to UK PLC of the railway of the 21st Century.
 
With an ever expanding membership base that spans all aspects of the railway and supporting industries, the Rail Alliance provides a forum where members can network, collaborate, innovate and thrive, and is the natural place to do business.
 
Now that you have found our website, you will see that it provides links to other support organisations, on-line advice and tools, information on member companies and organisations and a comprehensive database of products, services, expertise and industry news. In addition to this it also delivers relevant daily rail news bulletins and updates on industry opportunities.
 
Here at the Rail Alliance we recognise that development of the current and future skills and knowledge base of the industry is going to be vitally important moving forward. We have therefore set out a wide ranging programme of networking opportunities, seminars and educational and development events to support this aim. 
 
The Alliance is also engaged with a number of other education providers on a unique training and education package that will be focused on keeping companies in touch with market opportunities at home and abroad, new legislation and compliance requirements and the maximisation of training and development opportunities; all with a real commitment to making sure the sector retains its people and attracts the next generation of engineers and rail professionals.
 
Creating dynamic and collaborative networks will also enable the many to continue to trade with the few, but to be effective in this new procurement era, companies will have to concentrate on ensuring their compliance with a wide range of accreditation requirements; simultaneously learning from the best practice of others and other industries and above all concentrate on adding value to both their own and others products, whilst continuously seeking to drive down costs and waste.
