Making Digital Rail a reality, together
Partnerships at eye level
Digitalisation of the railway system is a complex, long-term and highly innovative project, requiring many different competencies – which is why Digital Rail is an initiative of the entire rail sector. To learn from each other, pool resources and represent common interests, we rely on new partnership models. Partners from the industry play just as big a role as rail operators – making it possible to implement similar programmes at European level, such as ‘Shift2Rail’, much more efficiently.
From client to partner
Cooperation with industry is essential for the digital railway system. And these relationships are changing – the classic client-contractor relationship is being replaced by development partnerships. This has advantages for both sides. Railway operators no longer simply carry out orders, but become active co-developers. And industry can use the knowledge and experience of railway operators to establish open platforms. If approved in Germany, these platforms offer great potential for marketing in Europe and worldwide.
