Unipart Rail

Technology and Supply Chain Solutions

Unipart Rail addresses the challenges of the rail industry across the asset lifecycle by working collaboratively with partners to deliver technology and supply chain solutions that improve performance, reduce risk and optimise cost.

As part of Unipart Group, a global business that brings together manufacturing, logistics and consultancy in a set of products and services that create imaginative solutions for its customers, Unipart Rail has behind it a huge array of skills and capabilities drawn from years working across a multi-sector customer base.

Materials and Supply Chain Efficiencies

Customers from all over the world over benefit from their Signalling & Train Management, Infrastructure, and Traction & Rolling Stock product range coupled with world-class supply chain efficiencies.

Materials are supplied from a single item up to a complex project plan over a defined period, incorporating manufacturing, assembly and bespoke delivery plans to meet the needs of individual customers. By matching their service to each customer’s needs, the result is the best possible for each scenario.

A keen understanding of the regulatory environment and the high standards required with a strong emphasis on safety means the business delivers to your customers confident in the knowledge that you’re always fulfilling your legal obligations.

The kind of innovative, creative, compliant thinking that helps them find fresh answers to the most complex of customer questions. For example their OLE Assembly and Logistics, or the Off-site Factory for Level Crossings both cut trackside complexity and installation time as well as minimising stocking and requirements for trackside stores.

Did you know too that their capabilities are supported with a number of acquired companies? Samuel James for example who provide LV switchgear and control gear systems or instrumentel, suppliers of condition based maintenance technology.
