CRRC Qingdao Sifang Locomotive & Rolling Stock Co., Ltd. (abbreviated as "CRRC Sifang Co., Ltd.") is a core enterprise of CRRC Corporation Limited, a core R&D and manufacturing base for high-speed trains in China, a manufacturer of intercity and urban rail transit vehicles, and an important export base for national rail transit equipment products.

CRRC Sifang Co., Ltd. has a complete system of independent R&D, large-scale manufacturing, and high-quality services for rail transit equipment. The company is a national high-tech enterprise, possessing 10 major national-level R&D and testing institutions, including the National Engineering Research Center for Rail Transit Vehicle System Integration, the National Engineering Technology Research Center for High-speed EMU Assembly, the National Key Laboratory for High-speed Maglev Transportation Technology, *Enterprise Technology Center, *Industrial Design Center, the National Metrology and Testing Center for High-speed Train Industry, and a Post-doctoral Scientific Research Workstation. It has also established overseas R&D centers in Germany, the United Kingdom, and Thailand. With an industry-leading simulation analysis platform and test verification platform, a comprehensive high-level R&D team, and an open innovation system of industry-university-research-application, the company has formed a strong technological innovation capability. Covering an area of 1.77 million square meters, the manufacturing base is well-equipped, with advanced processes, specialization, and scale, forming eight major product platforms: high-speed EMUs, high-speed maglev, intercity and suburban EMUs, metro vehicles, modern trams, monorail vehicles, high-grade railway passenger cars, and diesel multiple units. Its manufacturing level ranks among the world's leading.

CRRC Sifang Co., Ltd. is in a leading position in the industry in the R&D and manufacturing of high-speed EMUs, intercity and suburban EMUs, and urban rail vehicles. China's first 200 km/h high-speed EMU, the first 300 km/h high-speed EMU, the first 380 km/h high-speed EMU, the first "Fuxing" EMU, the first high-speed EMU exported abroad, the first intercity suburban EMU, and the first China-standard metro train were all born here. At present, the company has formed a series of high-speed EMU and intercity suburban EMU products at different speed levels to meet various operational needs. The CRH380A high-speed EMU independently developed by the company set a world record of 486.1 km/h for the highest test speed in railway operation. The developed "Fuxing" CR400AF EMU operates at 350 km/h, making China the country with the highest commercial operation speed of high-speed rail in the world. The Jakarta-Bandung high-speed railway EMUs designed and manufactured by the company achieved a historic breakthrough in China's high-speed rail trains going abroad. The CR450AF EMU prototype with a design operating speed of 400 km/h, the fastest in the world, was successfully developed. The 600 km/h high-speed maglev transportation system led by the company has been successfully rolled off the production line. The company has a full spectrum of urban rail transit vehicle products and can provide customized solutions for users.

The Qinghai-Tibet Railway project, the Beijing-Shanghai High-Speed Railway project, and the Fuxing high-speed train project participated in by CRRC Sifang Co., Ltd. have won the Special Prize of the National Science and Technology Progress Award. The company's rail transit equipment products not only meet domestic market demand but have also been exported to more than 30 countries and regions around the world.

As a member of the rail transit equipment manufacturing industry, CRRC Sifang Co., Ltd. will continue to uphold the business philosophy of "Quality First, Innovation Leading, Customer Orientation" and strive to build a *enterprise in rail transit equipment.
