Our experts bring a wealth of experience to engineering projects, having been instrumental in developing, contributing to or validating numerous rail industry standards in Australia and New Zealand.

As career rolling stock engineers, we ensure your fleet operates at peak efficiency, reliability, and safety. We are recognised as Independent Competent Persons (ICP) by the majority of AU/NZ networks and as a Technically Assured Organisation (TAO) of Transport for NSW with multiple chartered engineers who are Registered Engineers of Queensland (RPEQ).

We understand that each rail network has unique requirements. Our service is tailored to your project as we apply pragmatic engineering solutions that are comprehensively documented for stakeholders.
