This Full Material Management contract calls for Alstom to
provide Mantena with the necessary spare parts for maintaining
the Coradia Nordic trains. Under the seven-year contract,
priced by the kilometre, Alstom will anticipate and plan for
replacement part needs, deliver parts on request in real time,
manage the spare parts storehouse and provide local technical
support.

“This contract demonstrates our commitment, alongside our
partner Mantena, to ensuring the availability of our Coradia
Nordic trains in the Scania region” says Roland Kientz,
Senior Vice President for Northern Europe at Alstom Transport.

Alstom’s Coradia Nordics are winterized regional trains,
especially suited to extreme winter weather conditions. They
offer highly comfortable travel for passengers, with low floors
and no steps to ensure exceptional accessibility, and they are
95% recyclable. Alstom has already sold 127 Coradia Nordic
trains in Sweden.
