Paragon ID has obtained a two-year extension of its contract with Rail Delivery Group (RDG), the organisation that brings together the community that run Britain’s railway including Network Rail, as well as passenger and freight rail companies.
Under the terms of the contract extension, Paragon ID, through its English subsidiary BemroseBooth Paragon, will continue to supply all the magnetic tickets for RDG until 2020. Paragon ID is also responsible for the management and distribution of RDG’s and rail operating companies’ marketing materials such as flyers, leaflets, timetables to more than 2,500 train stations across the country.
This contract further strengthens the relationship between RDG and Paragon ID, who has also been named as a preferred supplier for smart ticketing as UK rail makes the transition from paper based magnetic tickets to contactless or smart alternatives.
“We are delighted to have extended our contract with RDG. We have agreed that we will work closely together to expedite the transition from magnetic stripe tickets to smart ticketing technology. We are fully focused on future solutions for mass transit, building on our strong heritage supplying the rail sector for decades,” Richard Farmer, Sales and Marketing Director at BemroseBooth Paragon, said.
