    Rail & Transport​

    Bluefield provides services to a variety of transport asset classes, including rail (above and below track), busses, and on-road haulage trucks. 

    Our asset management services include Strategic Asset Management Planning, Spares Optimisation, Asset Management Planning, and Life Cycle Cost Modelling.  We also provide training, coaching, mentoring, and other specialist services, including process assessments and improvements. 

    Bluefield also concentrates on practical, sustainable improvements to reliability, productivity, cost, and safety.  Our flagship “Bluefield Transformation” approach is designed to build a culture of proactive maintenance among fixed plant maintenance teams, positioning clients to take advantage of the latest improvements in maintenance systems, processes, and new technologies.  We can also conduct failure investigations and defect elimination projects. 

    Within the rail sector, Bluefield provides the full end to end range of services including fleet, tool, and plant maintenance reviews, operational reviews, facility and plant upgrades, project expansions, modifications, and repair work, all under live operating conditions.   

    Our specialists cover all rail fleets, including passenger, heavy haul, freight, yard and shunt, infrastructure, on-track vehicles, and heritage. 

    Having an experienced in-house team means we can deliver a complete solution for every step in a rail project from planning, design, construction, equipment, operation, safety, maintenance, and operational readiness.  

    Our team has undertaken design, upgrades, and construction of existing or new rail facilities including: 

    • Wheel Shop and associated equipment  
    • Bogie overhaul facility 
    • Bearing requalification  
    • Grit Sheds and associated blasting equipment  
    • Rollingstock wash-down areas  

    Our process and technical expertise also extend to capacity planning, RAMS asset management, engineering reports, and operations planning.
