Accelerating Digital Transformation in CP7: Insights from Rail Forum’s Industry Innovation Event
Recently, we had the privilege of presenting at the Rail Forum's “Maximising Opportunities in CP7: Innovation for Industry Performance” event at Villa Park in Birmingham.
It was an inspiring opportunity to discuss the practical realities of digital transformation—and how innovation, when delivered effectively, can unlock real performance gains across the rail industry.
At eviFile, we’ve seen firsthand what works (and what doesn’t) when it comes to deploying digital tools at scale. Our session focused on three core themes:

Why Digital Transformation is Critical for CP7
As we enter CP7, the pressure on rail organisations is greater than ever. The industry faces a perfect storm of challenges:
These pressures aren’t going away—if anything, they’re intensifying. That’s why digital transformation isn’t optional in CP7. It’s essential.
By shifting to a data-driven delivery model, organisations can gain better control, improve collaboration, and make faster, more informed decisions. And when done right, digital transformation becomes a key enabler for performance, compliance, and resilience.

The Key Pillars of Effective Digital Transformation
During the session, we outlined the foundational elements needed to make digital transformation truly effective—not just another initiative that fails to scale:
Lessons Learned: Sharing Best Practice from the Field
We backed up our talk with real-world examples from the projects we’ve supported across the UK rail network, focusing on the work we do with TRU (Transpennine Route Upgrade)

By digitising compliance workflows in the utility sector, organisations can shift from reactive monitoring to predictive oversight—reducing downtime, avoiding incidents, and ensuring fast, accurate regulatory reporting.
Final Thoughts
Digital transformation isn’t about ticking a technology box. It’s about enabling better decisions, improving delivery, and meeting the demands of CP7 head-on.
