WHY DIGITAL RAIL?e rail sector is under increasing pressure to be more accountable, compliant, and agile. Legacy paper systems are slow, prone to error, and dicult to audit.The rail industry operates in one of the most highly regulated environments in the UK, where safety, compliance, and operational excellence are non-negotiable. Yet, many organisations still rely on paper-based systems that are slow, prone to human error, hard to manage at scale, and difficult to audit. Paperwork can get lost, signatures can be missed, and outdated versions of safety-critical documents can unknowingly be put into use. As project timelines tighten and client expectations rise, legacy systems simply cannot keep pace with the demands of modern railway operations. Planners, site teams, and safety managers need instant access to the latest forms, risk assessments, and approvals—anytime, anywhere. Relying on printing, manual distribution, or overnight couriers delays critical work and exposes projects to avoidable risks. Digital transformation is no longer a «nice to have»—it’s an operational necessity. Organisations that fail to modernise risk falling behind, facing increased costs, reduced productivity, and potential non-compliance penalties.DocuRail eliminates these risks by replacing paper forms with smart, secure, mobile-ready digital workflows, designed specifically for the rail industry. Our platform enables: Instant Access and Completion Planners and field teams can access the latest approved forms on any device—no printing required. Automated Distribution and Secure Storage Forms are automatically sent to the right stakeholders and archived in the cloud for full traceability. 100% Compliance and Audit Readiness Every submission is time-stamped, version-controlled, and digitally signed—making audits faster and stress-free. Real-Time Data and Live Status Updates Managers gain immediate visibility of form submissions, compliance gaps, and site readiness without waiting for paperwork to arrive.10ARCH
Offline Capability for Remote Environments Forms can be completed and saved even in tunnels, rural locations, or areas with no network coverage—syncing automatically when reconnected. By going digital with DocuRail, rail businesses can increase accountability, reduce administrative overhead, and improve site safety—all while future-proofing their operations in line with industry expectations.Going digital is not just about replacing paper; it’s about unlocking new ways of working that give rail businesses a competitive edge. By standardising processes across your projects and supply chain, you can ensure consistent data capture, faster decision-making, and reduced operational risk. Digital forms also help you demonstrate compliance to clients and regulators with confidence—providing clear, accessible records that can be retrieved in seconds, not hours. Additionally, DocuRail’s smart digital workflows enable: Collaboration Across Teams and Locations Multiple users can view, complete, and approve the same form in real-time—whether they’re in the office, on-site, or working remotely. Reduced Environmental Impact By eliminating paper usage, print waste, and unnecessary travel for document distribution or collection, you help your organisation meet its environmental sustainability goals. Improved Workforce Engagement Easy-to-use, mobile-friendly digital tools empower your teams to focus on delivery, not paperwork—reducing frustration and improving adoption across all levels of your organisation. Data-Driven Operational Insights Capture structured data on every form submission, turning daily operational activities into valuable insights that help you optimise planning, track trends, and improve performance over time. Scalable Deployment Across Projects Whether you’re managing one project or hundreds, DocuRail’s platform scales with your business, providing consistent quality and control across all your operations. In short, DocuRail helps railway businesses not just digitise forms, but transform the way they work—delivering safer, smarter, and more efficient outcomes for clients, workers, and passengers alike.Paper-based systems introduce costly bottlenecks, such as: Delays caused by travelling to site oces to collect or print updated forms. Risks of lost, damaged, or outdated documents being used on site. Inability to verify if the latest approved version has been issued or signed. Time-consuming manual ling, scanning, or re-keying of information into other systems.11 ARCH

That’s why DocuRail is designed to protect your compliance position at every step—helping you meet and exceed industry expectations with audit-ready, verifiable digital records. ✅ NR/L2/OHS/019 — Safety and Work Pack Standards DocuRail is built around Network Rail’s 019 Standard, ensuring your Safe Work Packs (SWPs), Task Briefings, and Plant Operation Schemes (POS) follow the correct structure, approval processes, and workforce engagement requirements. Features like mandatory digital sign-offs, version control, and embedded risk controls ensure your documentation is 019 compliant by default, reducing the risk of procedural failures. ✅ RISQS Audit-Ready As a rail supplier, you are expected to demonstrate Railway Industry Supplier Qualification Scheme (RISQS) compliance. DocuRail makes this easy by providing on-demand access to fully traceable digital records, including: *Who created, edited, and signed each document *When approvals were made *What version was issued to site teams *You’ll never need to scramble through paper files or disconnected systems again—your entire document history is securely stored and instantly searchable.COMPLIANCE & STANDARDS21 ARCH
SECURITY & DATA PROTECTIONProtecting Your People, Projectsand ReputationIn the rail industry, data security is not optional. Railway projects often involve handling sensitive safety information, personal data, and contractual documentation that—if compromised—could lead to legal penalties, reputational damage, or operational disruption. That’s why DocuRail is built on a security-first architecture, giving you the confidence that your operational data is protected at every step—from creation to archival. ✅ UK-Based, GDPR-Compliant Hosting All DocuRail data is securely hosted on UK-based servers, ensuring full alignment with the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) and UK data privacy laws. Your sensitive information stays within the jurisdiction of the UK, with no data offshoring or exposure to unknown third parties.✅ SSL Encryption — End-to-End 256-Bit Security Every piece of data transmitted between your device and DocuRail’s servers is protected with 256-bit SSL encryption—the same level of security used by leading banks and government agencies. This prevents unauthorised access, interception, or data manipulation during transfer or storage. ✅ Role-Based Access Controls (RBAC) Not every team member needs access to every document. DocuRail’s role-based access system ensures that only authorised personnel can view, edit, or approve sensitive forms. Define custom permission levels for: Planners Responsible Managers Safety Advisors Client Representatives Site Workers This helps prevent accidental data exposure and supports accountability across your projects.DOCURAIL GIVES YOU FULL CONTROL OVER YOUR DATASECURELY MANAGED, LEGALLY COMPLIANTAND ALWAYS READY WHEN YOU NEED IT.✅ Retention Schedules & Auto-Deletion Policies Maintain data hygiene and compliance with retention policies by applying automatic archiving or deletion schedules. DocuRail helps you manage the lifecycle of your records, reducing storage costs and ensuring you meet legal data retention requirements.22ARCH
