Category management pipeline
2020 - 2021
Category management
Overview
Network Rail is rolling out a new, more collaborative approach to delivering route and regional business outcomes through
the supply market.
A cross functional team have developed a category strategy for a particular area of spend. The supply market plays a big part in
providing insight to help develop the strategy and implement it. This document provides an overview of our pipeline for category
strategies over the next 12 months. In particular, this document looks at:
• The activity that is carried out
• The timings associated with them
• How you can get involved
