Engineering services and software development for railway technology

Software, train control and signaling systems, testing and commissioning, biddings (RFP)

Rail customers worldwide expect safe, reliable, cost-efficient, and comfortable rail systems. Train manufacturers are therefore equipping new rolling stock with a wide range of digital systems, while rail operators are modernizing their track infrastructure and launching retrofit projects for existing train fleets.

At duagon, 150 specialized engineers are ready to support you with a comprehensive range of services. We can responsibly manage all services as a turnkey project or provide strong support to your existing teams during implementation. Benefit from our expertise and over 20 years of experience in the areas of rail vehicles, track side, hardware, software, functional safety, and cybersecurity.

If you’re interested, please contact your duagon representative directly or reach out to our sales team for an initial, no-obligation discussion.
