Engineer and expert witness
You discuss your task directly with the owner. Olaf Scholtz-Knobloch combines hands-on experience from the locomotive depot with an engineering education and the leadership of demanding railway projects.
Where further specialist knowledge is needed, independent specialists and small engineering practices from an established network join the work. That way the collaboration is matched to what the particular commission requires.
Career and networkExperience across the railway system
From the technical detail
to the interplay.
Wear on a vehicle may originate in the track. A new installation has to suit the operation. OSK-Consult keeps the interfaces in view – from mainline and urban railways through to special systems.
