The Procurement Department
Who are we?
The Procurement Department is responsible for the purchase of works, supplies and services that TUC RAIL needs in order to carry out its activities. Our purchases are divided into three main categories:
- puchases in the name and on behalf of Infrabel
- purchase in the name and on behalf of TUC RAIL (“Corporate”)
- purchases of external consultancy services
Each of these categories has a dedicated cell within the Procurement Department.
All our purchases are made in accordance with the legislation on public contracts.

These projects require and involve long-term collaboration with companies (mainly contractors). These projects require and imply long-term collaboration with companies (mainly contractors). This long-term cooperation requires all partners to apply the same safety principles. Please therefore consult Infrabel’s Safety charter below.
