ARTC Network Wide Routine Inspection 2026-2028
Multi-year network-wide structural inspection program for Australian Rail Track Corporation covering bridges and structures across the rail network from 2026 to 2028.
Challenge
ARTC required comprehensive renewal of their network-wide inspection contract to maintain structural condition assessment across their entire rail network. The project scope encompassed large-scale inspection programming requiring coordination of inspection teams across multiple states (Victoria and Queensland) while maintaining continuity of rail operations.
Solution
Sterling proposed a comprehensive inspection program building on their successful 2020-22 contract delivery. The solution included deployment of inspection teams across Victoria and Queensland, coordinated safeworking arrangements, systematic structural condition assessment protocols, and data management systems for tracking and reporting asset condition across the network.
Deliverables
Network-wide structural inspections across ARTC rail network; Condition assessment reports for bridges and structures; Load rating verification and documentation; GPS data integration for asset tracking; Coordination with safeworking contractors; Inspection data management and reporting systems; Multi-year inspection programming from June 2026 to June 2028
Outcome
Secured renewal of the major network-wide inspection contract demonstrating Sterling's proven capability in large-scale rail asset management. The contract enables ARTC to maintain comprehensive oversight of structural condition across their network with systematic inspection protocols and data-driven asset management.
