How we created brand synergy for a transport technology plc

A brand alignment project often becomes necessary when rapid growth through mergers and acquisitions challenges brand consistency. Tracsis PLC faced such a challenge, with a growing brand portfolio with highly individual identities.

MAJOR stepped in to weave these brands into a cohesive and distinctive brand identity system that established a shared visual language for the entire group.

Who are Tracsis?

Tracsis is a transport technology company. They specialise in data capture for monitoring and optimising railway resources.

Project objectives

Strengthen group identity

With many brands operating in different market spaces, ensuring that each one resonates with the central Tracsis Group identity was essential, communicating integration and unity. Maximising clients' awareness of the breadth and depth of Tracsis products and services.

Preserve and celebrate heritage

Incorporating each brand's legacy was crucial. We aimed to acknowledge the rich history of individual brands while integrating them into a single identity and enhancing collaboration between different business units.

Create a dynamic design system

Our end goal was a design system applicable to the current brands under Tracsis Group and adaptable for future acquisitions.

Promote core values

The new brand system must communicate Tracsis's motto: 'Technology makes it possible, People make it happen' with clarity and vigour.

The solution

Stakeholder-inclusive design:

Understanding the importance of brand heritage, MAJOR worked closely with brand owners and stakeholders, ensuring their inputs were valued and integrated.
