Rail construction and maintenance

The freight and passenger rail transport sector is changing considerably due to developments in other transport modes: coach transport, low-cost air travel, carpooling, etc. While rail transport is a very attractive option when it comes to addressing the environmental issues associated with urbanisation and sustainable cities, the rail sector has a huge challenge to overcome: competitiveness. The cost of investments in infrastructure development, maintenance and servicing is reflected in the cost per kilometre of this mode of transport. Efficiency gains can be achieved through the introduction of new systems to improve the operation and maintenance of tracks and rolling stock, the standardisation of products and services, the digitisation of multimodal management systems, better control of fleet and infrastructure downtimes, etc.
With a strong focus on safety, Ortec is a partner of choice for managing these projects simultaneously and providing users with a world-class service.
