What do you want to do in rail?

Why scope comes first

Your intended activities are the starting point for your RISQS journey. They can influence:

• which RICCLRICCLRailway Industry Commodity Classification ListThe standard list the rail industry uses to classify products, services and materials. Selecting your codes is how you define the scope of work for which your organisation seeks qualification, and buyers use the codes to find suppliers. Your codes influence which audit requirements apply, but they are not the only factor: buyer requirements and where you will work can also matter.GlossaryClose product and service codes you select
• which RISQS requirements and audit modules may apply
• whether an audit is required
• the competence your people will need
• the railway assurance arrangements you need in place

Matching activities to RICCL codes

RISQS uses the RICCL to classify the products, services and materials used across the railway. Suppliers select the codes that match what they offer, and buyers use the codes to find suitable suppliers.

This guide does not assign RICCL codes. The codes that match your activities should be identified from the current RICCL list and, where appropriate, confirmed with the buyers you want to work for.

RICCL codes for your activities

Be realistic about scope

Register for what you intend to do and can support with arrangements and evidence. Selecting codes you do not need can widen what is asked of you. Leaving out codes you do need can mean buyers cannot find you for the work you want.
