Rail Supply Chain Survey

* 1. BIS Oxford Economics is currently undertaking a survey of the rail industry on behalf of the Australasian Railway Association. The findings of this data collection will assist in better mapping the Australian rail supply chain and how best to ensure that this supply chain is sustained through a volatile phase of rail investment. Through our desktop research, we have identified your firm as an integral part of this supply chain.

This survey is a part of a wider analysis of the rail industry and the conditions facing it.

Your input is valuable to help understand the depth of the rail supply chain, where the supply chain is located, the issues facing the supply chain, and potential policy solutions. Any insights you can offer in these matters is greatly appreciated. The survey can collect specific comments if you wish to make them.

Please note that all company specific information provided will be treated in the strictest confidence by BIS Oxford Economics and will not be published. Responses to industry and policy questions will be aggregated and reported anonymously.

We respectfully request that responses be submitted by 11.59 PM on Friday the 21st of August AEST to allow time for analysis and completion of the rail supply chain study. We greatly appreciate your assistance by completing the survey.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding the survey or its use please do not hesitate to contact us:
