Interfleet Technology has announced the addition of a new strategic dimension to its expanding portfolio of services with the launch of the Interfleet Transport Advisory (ITA).
Encompassing three services areas of transport planning, transformation and transaction, ITA will work at the front end of business decision making by developing strategies, services, projects and products from inception through to delivery.
The newly-formed strategic group has been set up by Rufus Boyd, who holds more than 20 years’ experience in international transport commercial projects, leading client specifications of major transport assets in the UK, Australia and South Africa.
Rufus, who leads ITA’s Transformation service area comments: “The market is crying out for a consultancy that can operationalise concepts and structures, and bridge the gap between the abstract and the practical.
“ITA offers a service which is designed specifically to sit between a high-end, financially-led management consultancy, and the technical groups.
“As a separate subsidiary of Interfleet Holdings, ITA has the backing, the systems and credentials of the 600-strong Interfleet family with a mandate to operate with the flexibility of a boutique service – this is almost unique in the market.
“People have always been key to Interfleet’s success, and ITA is no different. We have welcomed some exceptional recruits to the group, with Ira Gupta and Tim Hall – who lead the Transport Planning and Transaction service areas – joining a strong team which combines experience with intellectual fire-power, and will drive ITA forward.”
Interfleet’s Managing Director David Rollin adds: “The launch of the ITA comes at an exciting time for Interfleet Technology as the group celebrates its 15th anniversary.
“Having so successfully enhanced Interfleet’s range of technical competencies, strengthened our reputation across a range of transport sectors, and internationalised the group, the time is now right to add this strategic dimension to our portfolio of services.
“This new company allows Interfleet to bring together the expertise of our consultants from around the globe and across a raft of disciplines.
“Dedicated to addressing the strategic consultancy needs of the transport sector and headed up by industry-leading specialists, ITA’s three key areas of transport planning, transformation and transaction provide clients with a complete, global strategic service offering.
“I welcome our new team members and look forward to seeing ITA forge ahead as a unique, industry-leading consultancy.”
