Core values
Rail transport is close to our heart…
Just like our employees. We appreciate each and everyone’s commitment and promote their strengths and interests through e. g. courses in foreign languages and further education.
Rail transport connects people…
We embrace the same connection in our office, as team work is of our prime importance. Our team is made of software developers and engineers, who work hand in hand on the improvement of our product and productivity.
Rail transport should work without any mishaps…
The same applies to our staff. Our compliance culture includes responsibility for yourself and towards others, the rejection of any discriminations, and respecting the law and justice.
Rail transport is the future…
Young talents are the future. We therefore promote young masterminds by cooperating with the Technical University of Braunschweig. Furthermore internships or positions for student assistants provide the opportunity to gain practical experiences and insights in our company.
Rail transport enables passengers to make better use of their time…
In order for you to make better use of your working time as well, we create the planning and processes of rail traffic as simple and transparent as possible.
Rail transport is environmentally friendly…
We also pay attention to the preservation of the environment in our office. This includes e. g. telephone and video conferences instead of avoidable travelling. Waste separation and saving paper is self-evident to us. Additionally a regional organic farmer supplies fresh fruit and the milk for our coffee every week.

On track down under
The RMCon International team not only supports global rail transport with new innovations and consulting services from its headquarters in Germany, but also from the other side of the world.
In 2001, RMCon International expanded its presence with the foundation of an additional branch and offices in Sydney, Australia – Rail Management Consultants International Australia. Especially due to the wide variety of our many Australian clients, RMCon International Australia can thus ensure the direct support for our Australian clients in a consistent and time-efficient manner. The personal and direct contact to our clients has a high priority at RMCon International since the very beginning. While we constantly maintain this close contact in regular cooperation on projects as well as in training courses for our RailSys® Software Suite, our presence at trade fairs and expos is also an important part of practicing our company values.
Therefore, our Australian team, led by consultant David Bannister, is regularly present at international trade fairs such as the AusRAIL PLUS as an exhibitor and is always available for new and existing clients and partners for personal exchange.
With our team’s consulting expertise paired with the innovative functions of the RailSys® Software Suite, RMCon International Australia supports the majority of Australian rail traffic to this day.
