Interfleet Technology was formed in April 1994, as part of the privatisation of the UK rail industry. Interfleet originated from the former InterCity Fleet Engineering division of the British Rail engineering and technical Head Quarters, which managed the rolling-stock operated by the then InterCity sector of British Rail. From April 1994 to March 1996, the company traded as a subisidiary of the BR Board, then in March 1996, Interfleet was privatised by means of a Management and Employee Buy-Out (MEBO) from British Rail, led by its Directors. At the time of privatisation, the firm employed 99 staff and had one office in Derby. Turnover at that time was approx. £5 million. In October 2011, Interfleet was acquired by the SNC-Lavalin Group.
The international Interfleet group currently comprises nine regional subsidiaries in North America, the UK, Germany, India, Scandinavia and Australasia. The group has 22 offices in Australia (Adelaide, Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney), Canada (Burlington), Germany (Wiesbaden), India (Mumbai), New Zealand (Auckland and Wellington), Norway (Oslo), Sweden (8 locations including Gothenburg, Malmo and Stockholm), the United Kingdom (Derby, Edinburgh and London) and the United States (Philadelphia) and has 600+ staff.
