Abstract: As one of the most widely used modes of transportation worldwide, the standardization work of railways is of great significance for improving operational efficiency, enhancing service quality, and promoting sustainable development. Through research on railway enterprises, this paper proposes a standardization work solution applicable to railway enterprises of different sizes, which includes six steps. It is found that railway enterprises of different sizes can use the solution proposed in this study to carry out standardization work, but the results of different railway enterprises using this solution to carry out standardization work may be different, and the results of different units using this solution to carry out standardization work within the same railway enterprises are not comparable. Railway enterprises should strengthen cooperation and learn from each other’s advanced experience. Furthermore, the solution in this study can serve as a reference for different railway enterprises to carry out standardization work and contribute to the sustainable development of railway enterprises.
