InnoTrans in Berlin is one of the most important gatherings for the international rail industry. We will be returning to the trade fair in 2026 with a clear set of priorities: spare parts availability, efficient inventory management, successful marketing of surplus materials, obsolescence management, and the sustainable use of existing resources. Our focus is particularly on linking operational challenges with concrete digital solutions.
2024 in Review: Key Takeaways
Our debut at InnoTrans 2024 was a significant step in expanding our network and led to the establishment of numerous new client relationships. It also provided us with valuable insights into current developments and priorities within the industry.
In the process, key market needs were clearly confirmed and further refined:
-
Challenges in the supply of materials, particularly due to long lead times and rising inventory and capital costs
-
Clear demand for digital, interoperable solutions with transparent governance and a reliable data foundation
In the area of spare parts and inventory management in particular, it has once again become clear just how great the need for efficient, digital solutions already is. There is a growing sense of urgency, especially when balancing availability, cost-effectiveness, and regulatory requirements. Many companies are facing similar questions and challenges:
- How can unused inventory be put to profitable use?
- How can critical spare parts be made available more quickly?
- How can costs be reduced without compromising service quality and safety?
Our Focus for 2026: From Discussion to Implementation
This year, too, we look forward to building on this foundation. Current developments clearly demonstrate how important functioning supply chains, transparent markets, and sustainable processes have become. In addition, the ability to use existing resources efficiently is increasingly becoming a central focus of strategic decision-making.
Overall, our focus is on topics such as:
-
Optimization of the Rail Supply Chain
-
Digital Marketing of Spare Parts
-
Reduction of Inventory and Capital Tie-Up
-
Sustainable Use of Existing Resources Instead of Purchasing New Ones
InnoTrans offers the ideal opportunity to explore these topics in a practical and solution-oriented manner.
