Czech Technological Platform(SIZI) - Who we are?
• Twelve industrial companies of the Czech Republic acting in the area– of construction of railway tracks– their electrification– communication and signalling equipment
• Four faculties of three universities
• Four research and design institutes
• One college on civil engineering in Děčín
Form of co-operation
• This form is a part of the intention “Operational programme of Business Activities and Innovation” managed by the Ministry of Industry and Trade
• This programme was approved
by the European Commission
Association of Corporate Bodies - ,,Interoperability of Railway Infrastructure“ Technological Platform
Targets of Technological PlatformSIZI
• Achievement of production conformity of the Czech industrial companies with interoperability demands of the Trans-European conventional and high-speed railway system
• Research, education, training activity and international cooperation
Association of Corporate Bodies - ,,Interoperability of Railway Infrastructure“ Technological Platform
How to achieve targets 1/2
• SIZI submitted or is submitting 17 projects for proposal at different Czech national and European programmes
• CZ – Operational Programme of Business Activities and Innovation
• CZ - Operational Programme of Research and Development for Innovation
• CZ - Operational Programme of Supra-national Cooperation
• EU - FP of Research and Development

How to achieve targets 2/2
The projects create a package• with factual link-ups and duplicity eliminating
within the package also in relation to another programmes of similar orientation.
Real background of projects• demands on the projects were formulated by
SIZI industrial partners,
• projects designed by universities or research institutes were confirmed by the industrial partners.Association of Corporate Bodies - ,,Interoperability of Railway Infrastructure“ Technological Platform
Advantages of our SIZI systemconception 1/3
• Significant participation of scientific, research, development, and testing-line workplaces in the Technological Platform activities.
• Participation of universities and research institutes on this project represents their unique opportunity to take part in building of the Trans-European railway system whose main mean is determined by the demanded interoperability.
• Interoperability represents an important innovation impulse and is means of increasing competitive ability of the Czech industry.
• The project is also the direct response on EU´s decision on preference of the European railway transport as more environmental technical mode of transport.

Advantages of our SIZI systemconception 2/3
• Link-ups of companies industrial activities (Technological Platform members) on industrial activities fields (NACE) preferred by EU.
• SIZI respects not only relevant interoperability possibilities (TSI, following European standards, UIC regulations, UNISIG SUBSETs), but participates in their preparation in EU expert WGs.

Advantages of our SIZI systemconception 3/3
• Use of results of following European projects as, e.g. INNOTRACK, EUROPACK, RAILENERGY, EURO-INTERLOCKING is another advantage.
• SIZI activity to neighbouring countries in the European project “Interoperability as a Tool of cross-border Railway Transport Optimisation” is also very important.

Verification of interoperabilityproduction and products
• Verification of industrial production owing to interoperability demands is made by accredited testing laboratories and their results are interpreted by authorised and notified bodies.
• The Technological Platform closely cooperates with accredited laboratories and notified bodies of the Czech and Slovak Republic under the Agreement on cooperation of accredited laboratories and notified bodies.
