The company structure includes several major industrial plants in Russia:[11]

Joint ventures

Bombardier transportation

On 25 May 2007, in Sochi, Russia, Bombardier and Transmasholding signed an agreement to jointly establish an engineering center.[16]

In May 2008, Bombardier and TMH signed an agreement to form a joint company for the production of locomotives. The equal share companies were organised under the previously formed Bombardier Transportation Transmashholding AG, one as an engineering design centre: Transmashholding Bombardier Transportation (Engineering) Rus and another for the manufacturing of inverter drives (based on Bombardier's MITRAC technology) used in electric locomotives: Transmashholding Bombardier Transportation (Industrial) Rus.[17][18]

Knorr-Bremse

In April 2007, Knorr-Bremse AG and Transmashholding agreed to create a Russian joint venture to manufacture, sell and service rail vehicle braking systems in Russia and the Commonwealth of Independent States.[19]

Alstom

In December 2007, ALSTOM and Transmasholding signed a cooperation agreement that would lead to the formation of joint ventures for the production of railway components in Russia.[20] In October 2008 the partnership was further extended by the formation of a 51:49 joint venture for the production of double decker coaches TMH-Alstom DV.[21] This intent was ratified on 31 March 2009, with Alstom providing ongoing technical expertise for the modernisation of TMH's production sites, and the development of new locomotive platforms; with TMH undertaking more than 75% of the manufacturing. At the same time Alstom took a 25(+1)% stake in TMH's capital holding company.[22]

In April 2013, Alstom and Transmashholding inaugurated a joint production site intended to asynchronous traction motors for electric locomotives in Novocherkassk, that would later be used to equip the locomotives jointly developed and manufactured by Alstom and TMH for Russia and Kazakhstan. The inauguration ceremony was held in the presence of Russian Railways Senior Vice-President Valentin Gapanovich, TMH Managing Director Andrey Andreev, and Alstom Transport President, Henri Poupart-Lafarge.[23]

By late 2015 Alstom had increased its shareholding in Transmashholding by 8% from 25 to 33% for €54 million.[10]

Transconverter was formed as a joint venture with Siemens in April 2005 for the production of electrical equipment (high voltage static converters).
