Why do rail organisations choose UP3?

The structure of UK rail is changing. As train operating companies move into public ownership and Great British Railways takes shape, the organisations that will manage this transition most effectively are those with a strong platform foundation and a partner who genuinely understands the industry.

UP3 has worked at the heart of UK rail since 2016. We know how train operators work, what their passengers expect, and where ServiceNow can make the biggest difference. That depth of rail knowledge isn't something you can acquire quickly - and it's what sets us apart from generalist partners.

Partnering with leading Train Operating Companies, including Avanti West Coast and Southeastern, to help rail organisations unlock the full potential of ServiceNow.


Through our ServiceNow Managed Service, we provide continuous support and innovation, enabling operators to move beyond standalone tools and use the platform strategically, to deliver innovative, industry-leading solutions.


Rail specific applications built on ServiceNow, including Rail Case Management to automate Delay Repay while ensuring only valid claims are compensated, Rail Fraud Management to reduce fraudulent claims, and Rail Disruption Management to strengthen operational response and keep passengers moving.
