Rail Company Case Study

Learn more about our solutions for the engineering industry.

Client:
A leading design-build contractor and asset maintenance company in the United Kingdom. This company provides a single-source, responsibility procurement route for the provision of integrated engineering systems to the rail and other infrastructure markets.

Strategic Opportunity:
To assist the Client in the design of major UK rail stations and help them expand their services globally.

Key Challenge:
The Client had more design work than they could manage with their current resources. This limited their service capacity and threatened their price-competitiveness. Recognizing the immediate need for a highly experienced and flexible partner that could help them expand their services globally, they approached Apex CoVantage.

Apex CoVantage Solution:
Apex was able to provide top design engineers to assist with the design work for the rail stations, which allowed the Client's team the freedom to accept other international projects. The quick turn around of drawings and other deliverables, and the incorporation of comments provided by the Apex design engineers, enabled them to take on more clients and complete existing work in less time than before, with no additional overhead expenses. This made it possible for the Client to expand into the Middle East market for new rail design and construction services, while reducing design costs on the UK rail station project.

Result:
By partnering with Apex Engineering Solutions, this Client added resources and extended its global reach, while maintaining a tight control over costs.
