Inspiring our people to innovate
We understand the power of innovation and how it can help us solve industry challenges. And our people are key.
The best ideas can come when we least expect them and from colleagues who are close to the day-to-day operations. That is why we set up the Ideas Engine to allow great ideas to flourish.
A culture of innovation
Arriva’s growth into a major European operator has been achieved through a culture of entrepreneurship, innovation and a desire to exceed client expectations.
The Ideas Engine is a framework for innovation which unlocks the creativity that exists within the Arriva Group and encourages our colleagues to share their ideas. We fund pilot schemes to test and validate the potential of the best ideas and we share results across all our markets so that the whole group – and our clients and passengers – can benefit.
Collaboration and co-creation
To get the best ideas and drive the best outcomes for our passengers and clients, we look outside as well as inside.
We have a long history of partnering with manufacturers, technology providers, and other external organisations to make sure we are at the forefront of innovation within the transport sector.
