CAF Rail UK, Central Stores, Stockport, UK are the latest railway suppliers to be certified by the Railway Industry Supplier Approval Scheme (RISAS), run by RSSB. They are only the second company in the UK to have been certified to the S02 module that covers Products Groups Procurement, Storage and Transport Processes.
The RISAS scheme is the UK’s mainline rail industry’s supply chain approval body for critical products and services. It was designed by the railway industry to assure that safety case holders provide passenger and freight operators and other major customers, to rely upon the integral safety of the products and services of their suppliers.
Daniel Iredale, CAF Central Stores, Logistics & Facilities Manager, said: “This is truly a great achievement from all involved within the business given the difficult circumstances we have all been living with for the last 18 months.
“This achievement has been 3 years in the making considering the facility was a field 3 years ago, the team should be extremely proud of their achievement for RISAS as well as achieving ISO9001, 14001 & 45001 in that time.”
