We are pleased to announce that we have retained our Rail Industry Supplier Approval Scheme (RISAS) certification for our range of traction motor and motor alternator (MA) set repair and overhaul services.
Reaccreditation was awarded this month following a comprehensive reassessment audit by SGS CORREL Rail in January.
Michael Mitten, CEO of Houghton International, commented: “Quality and health and safety are paramount at Houghton International and we are committed to continuous improvement in these areas.
“RISAS is the benchmark for quality in safety critical repair for the industry and, through a rigorous assessment process, it demonstrates our capabilities and the quality of our work to our customers.
“Customers can be assured that we are dedicated to improving our processes in all areas, demonstrated by the reaccreditation, and will continue to do so across our full range of electro mechanical engineering services.”
