We’re open to scrutiny, and to engaging in long-term partnerships that want to achieve better outcomes for people and projects in the Kingdom.
After a yearlong evaluation, Network Rail concluded that AEI offered better value for money for its sizeable in-Kingdom support requirements. This reduced NRC’s supply chain management burden significantly. In turn, it started deriving greater efficiencies across the board, as the team can deal with a single competent, dependable local support partner.
Today, we provide a range of support to Network Rail that includes a managed transportation solution, accommodation for the entire team in the Kingdom, commercial back office services, visa and immigration assistance, phones and specialist procurement support. We’re also called on for specialist or emergency services, such as staff medical insurances queries and visa status issues – which is all in a day’s work for us.
The initial contract was for three years, but Network Rail remains a client of AEI to this day and has just signed a further, multi-million SAR extension. By going the extra mile, we can deliver when it matters most. We’re also willing to go beyond our normal scope of supply.
We believe our commitment to excellence and scope – along with the quality, reliability and value of our services – explains much of our ongoing partnership.
