The first steps came from producers and maintanance workshops. The number of companies with ECM certificates reached to 9.

By liberalization, the wagon owners are obligated to work with ECMs, where ECMs generally prefer to work with plants/workshops which have ECM maintanance function certificates. Thus the produrcers and maintanance workshops speed up their investments on this issue. By now, the number of ECMs in Turkey reached to 4, where number of companies with maintanance function certificates reached to 8.

Here below are those companies:
