Schneider Electric has recently gained Link-up approval – the UK rail industry supplier registration qualification scheme for several of its products and services.
The Link-up qualification is being used extensively by buying organisations such as Network Rail, London Underground and other large companies working in the UK rail sector.
In order to achieve the Link-up standard, the organisation’s assessment team visited Schneider Electric’s premises in Telford and carried out a thorough two day audit of the company.
Lee Fairburn, segment marketing manager at Schneider Electric commented, “Link-up operates a rigorous assessment process and the qualified supplier status represents a significant step for Schneider Electric in the rail industry.
“Already we have some major projects in the pipeline and this standard will open some even bigger doors for us. Looking forward, from our state of the art power supplies through to our world class sustainable innovations, we anticipate working more closely with the rail sector and promoting the full breadth of our offer.”
