From Private to Public: How Greater Anglia Led the Transition to Rail Renationalisation

Live Webinar
- Tuesday, June 9th 12:00 PM BST
The UK rail industry is entering a period of structural transformation. As passenger rail services transition back into public ownership by 2027, operators will move from privately managed environments into a unified public sector model under DfT Operator Limited (DFTO) and, ultimately, Great British Railways (GBR).
This shift has significant implications for how rail organisations govern, secure, and retain data.
In this webinar, we will explore how Greater Anglia led the renationalisation journey. We’ll unpack the practical challenges of transitioning data, systems, and policies into a publicly owned model, and show how AvePoint helps rail companies establish consistent, compliant governance across Microsoft 365 and cloud platforms - enabling continuity, control, and confidence throughout the transition.
Key points include:
How re‑nationalisation changes data ownership, compliance, and accountability requirements
Common governance gaps that emerge when moving from private to public management
How AvePoint supports policy‑driven governance, secure data migration, and long‑term compliance aligned to public‑sector standards
Designed for senior IT, data, security, and transformation leaders, this session provides practical guidance to help rail organisations prepare today for a publicly managed future.
