Link Up
Link-Up is the Supplier Accreditation System used by the UK railway industry, (including Tubelines Ltd).
Without appropriate Link-Up Product Group approval it is not possible to provide goods and/or services directly for the UK railway networks. Therefore the role that Link-Up plays in respect of Supplier Accreditation is "Surveillance and Audit", particularly considering Network Rail's stringent assurance case compliance requirements.
There are three levels of Link-Up membership, Subscriber, Patron and Partner:
Subscribers
Subscribers are all those businesses who provide goods and services to the UK rail market
Patrons
Patrons are key rail companies with an ongoing requirement to manage their supply chain.
Partner
Partner level is for the infrastructure and train operating companies, including Network Rail, Tube Lines and Metronet Rail. Partners establish Product Group scope and eligibility criteria.
Bailey Rail is now a Link-Up Partner, emphasising our growing commitment and developing status as a key railway company. Patron status provides our procurement and compliance teams with direct on-line access to the Link-Up database to search for potential specialist suppliers and subcontractors and to verify their current accreditation.
Link-Up is administered by Achilles Information Ltd for details of the scheme visit www.achilles.com
