What is RISQS?
The Rail Industry Supplier Qualification Scheme serves as the certifying authority for any entities involved as buyers or suppliers within the expansive Great British rail industry.
RISQS plays a pivotal role in aiding Network Rail and Transport for London (TFL) in the effective management of their supply chain risks. Owned, overseen, and endorsed by the rail industry itself, the scheme is steered by a committee comprising representatives from various segments of the industry.
The scheme falls under the purview of the RSSB Board, with RSSB offering a suite of services to facilitate the operational aspects of the scheme. This encompasses the creation and refinement of rail standards, mandatory for all companies engaged in the rail sector. For further details about the RSSB and its services, visit their website at https://www.rssb.co.uk/en.
