A Safety Management System (SMS) is an integral component of a railway that maps out the many facets to facilitate safe railway operations and meet regulatory requirements.
Knowledgeable Rail-Werx professionals work with you in the development or review of the SMS. Our professionals are very knowledgeable of the regulations; however, they need the assistance of company personal to gather information unique to the company’s railway operations. At the same time, our professionals will coach company staff to better understand the regulations that govern their operations. The SMS is a legacy document that will, in the future, assist new management employees to understand the railway operations.Railway operations compliance reviews are a good way to identify railway gaps.
Rail Werx’s professionals have many years of operational experience that can quickly identify gaps and help the railway operations staff to determine the appropriate solutions to improve production and reduce costs.
The Railway General Operating Instructions (GOI) document, company policies and applicable government regulations govern operations in a railway yard. It is crucial that the GOI instructions encompass all aspects of the railway operations.
Rail-Werx professionals work with you in the development of a custom, site-specific GOI. Rail-Werx does not believe in a “one size fits all” template; all operations are unique. Therefore, the GOI needs to be equally unique to your rail operations.
Applications for a railway operating approval can be very complex and often require a re-work. Rail-Werx professionals can assist you in developing the documentation such as the railway Safety Management System and guide you though the submission of the operating approval application.
