Benefits of Better Coordinated Rail Procurement

ARA and Department of Industry comissioned Deloitte Access Economics to identify benefits of a more coordinated and harmonised approach to rail procurement.

‘Opportunities for Greater Passenger Rolling Stock Procurement Efficiency’ report launched by Minister Truss, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Infrastructure and Regional Development at AusRAIL 2013.

Findings of the report:

Over the next 30 years, state governments could spend $30 billion on procuring rolling stock.

More efficient planning around purchases can save governments nearly $6 billion on their upcoming rail projects.

Could retain nearly $15.5 billion in economic activity in Australia over the next 30 years.

Benefits of Better Coordinated Rail Procurement

The industry benefits:

Increased foresight and ability to plan for upcoming orders.

More functional and well-coordinated supply chain.

Increased innovation for the industry.

Future growth and sustainability of the Australian rail industry.

Support Australian jobs and regional development.

Higher productivity.
