New Rail - dic2014
- 2. The Company In 2002 a team of skilled engineers, after a decade of common experience in rolling stock development for a primary italian rolling stock manufacturer, decided to create an indipendent engineering and consultancy company: New Rail Engineering. The experience and the understanding of the founders, current members of New Rail Engineering, from the beginning has allowed a high-level position, confirmed over the years by the appreciation of customers for the quality of services in research and development of rolling stock. The company has built partnerships with well known specialists and realities and could, thus, grow and expand the services offered with a wide performance range, consolidating an already extensive experience. Today New Rail Engineering can provide engineering and project management covering all phases of the birth of a rail vehicle. New Rail Engineering has acquired in the two decades of experience of its team, a deep knowledge of Italian and foreign rolling stock and, more generally, of the railway system, logistics and public transport. Relationship and team oriented job approach allow the company to work with full autonomy and responsibility or, elsewhere, in team with customer specialists, according to specific customer needs.

- 8. SYSTEM ENGINEERING The setting of the technical activities of a supply as complex and articulated as a railway vehicle is essential for optimal development of the contract activities: design, construction, purchase. The technical framework of the contract must allow to highlight, from the earliest stages of setting, the critical aspects in order that their effects on the activities can be properly planned and managed. This activity has, therefore, a fundamental role in the technical and economic success of the job and is configured as an interdisciplinary link between the offer and project: it cannot be be left to a soloist, as experienced and capable, but it requires different skills and therefore different professionals. It is foundamental to involve in this activity Company’s key personnel who will manage the project and also the ones who defined the offer. Engineering
