We've been working with Serco to conduct UAT on our Network Rail Owned Vehicles for several years now, the central team are extremely helpful and pro-active and certification is always received on the same day and the work is complete. They are also able to adapt to last minute changes for us, recently we had a planned test over two days for 28 axles – unfortunately due to delays with other works the machine was not prepared in time for the technicians when they arrived on site. They were able to coordinate a last minute change enabling the testing to be completed over the following 2 days instead.

RTS have been providing technical training for our track maintenance staff for many years. Not only do our staff gain valuable knowledge and skills, but they also leave the training feeling inspired to apply what they’ve learnt. The theory coupled with the practical exercises and real-world samples used during the courses are particularly beneficial, allowing our staff to immediately put theory into practice. The ongoing support provided by RTS has been invaluable. They've been responsive to our queries and have gone above and beyond in providing additional courses and places to meet demand. We highly recommend the training courses provided by RTS to any business looking to invest in the development of their workforce.

As a company operating in the UK rail industry, we understand the importance of partnering with reliable and innovative service providers, that's why we utilised SRTS for their knowledge and expertise in providing OLE testing. The team’s commitment to attention to detail and how they’ve meticulously analysed the project needs and provided us with comprehensive solutions throughout have not only been met but exceeded our expectations. Their dedication to quality and precision has ensured that every aspect of the project to date has been carried out brilliantly. The team have kept us informed at every stage, providing regular updates, and addressing any concerns or issues promptly. This level of transparency and professionalism instilled confidence in us and reaffirmed our decision to partner with them.

Andy Rhodes and the team from Serco were thoroughly professional in providing subject matter expertise and stakeholder engagement in the recent update of the Vehicle Track Interaction Strategic Model. In collaboration with the University of Huddersfield they delivered software and technical updates to this complex model that continues to provide the analytical capability to assess cost impacts of changes in traffic and different asset renewal policies on the GB rail network.

RTS have been providing our technician’s onsite assessments and monitoring for a while now, along with carrying out MPI and UAT audits to ensure we as a company maintain compliance. Jon Cadd, as a Level 3, also provides us with on call support as and when we require it. The team always turn up on time, they go above and beyond whenever we have asked for support at very short notice and are always happy to oblige. The communication from the team prior to arriving onsite and post service delivery is excellent. The quality of the service and ongoing support provided is second to none and very much appreciated, we would definitely recommend the services provided by the NDT team at RTS.

RTS undertook the instrumentation and output data acquisition of a bespoke Pantograph for the Authorisation of the new Overhead line on the Midland Mainline Project. SPL worked with RTS for 18 months working collaboratively and developing a bespoke plan of requirements. This upfront work on scope definition pathed the way for a right first-time delivery for the core scoped works that were delivered on time and on budget. The success was additionally rewarded an opportunity for the project team to support a piece of work to undertake testing on a unique project testing the largest OLE span in the country, 95m. This work is one part that will help to reduce electrification costs will enhance the business case for electrification. RTS really helped SPL map out and understand this hugely complex piece of system assurance and rolling stock engineering work.
