Roads

It's not just about travel, it's about being part of the
change that allows us to connect

The imperative need for safe and sustainable mobility has prompted companies to include technological innovations and new developments in their service portfolio to achieve the goal of creating smart roads.

The digitization of the tracks,
a step towards
the future

5G and edge computing. The deployment of 5G helps connected devices to be functional and efficient at any time. By transforming roads into intelligent highways, they will allow for increased safety and real-time direct communication with users. The progress of its implementation presents a future ever closer to the autonomous car.

Drones. They help to analyze traffic conditions, determine causes of accidents, warn of non-compliance with regulations, road conditions and generate analytical data that can be transformed from frequency signals.

Investing in innovation
is to invest in security

The inclusion of these technologies in mobility and infrastructures contributes to reducing accidents and improving safety and security of travelers and infrastructures, making them more efficient and optimizing the use of resources. In addition, they also help to make transport management more efficient and less polluting, reducing the carbon footprint, promoting sustainable mobility policies and improving air quality by reducing associated emissions.

To afford the unstoppable growth in traffic, the constant technological advances in the automotive industry, while essential, are insufficient without road infrastructures that evolve at the same speed.The ability of vehicles to interact with the road infrastructure and with other vehicles can be substantially improved if the appropriate infrastructure is in place, and this is where the Internet of Things and the development of 5G networks are crucial. Thanks to intercommunication between vehicles and between vehicles and infrastructure, traffic management systems will have a broader database to manage traffic more effectively.

The road maintenance industry is constantly striving to improve effectiveness and efficiency, developing R&D activities in projects that are integrated into roads to provide a better service to road users. It is essential to optimize maintenance activities and thus reduce the costs of this work, which translates into an increase in competitiveness and market share.

Innovation is undoubtedly a driver of social change that must necessarily be applied to road maintenance and upkeep in order to improve road safety and mobility. Technological development is key to maintaining a high standard of infrastructure quality. In the specific case of roads, it makes it possible to extend their useful life and adapt them to regulatory requirements.

Maintenance

The first step in road maintenance and operation tasks is to properly inventory the assets that make up the road infrastructure, then diagnose the magnitude of the deterioration suffered and, finally, define the performance objectives to be achieved with an action plan adapted to the available resources.

The digitization of activities and the inclusion of scanning technologies, which make it possible to move from physical models to virtual models with high levels of resolution, facilitate and speed up inventory tasks.

The automation of auscultation and inspection tasks is generating cost reductions, either by increased productivity or by the simultaneous use of large data sets that compensate for the precision of individual measurements with a greater number of measurements.

Access to updated information is the basis for the design of road infrastructure maintenance/improvement actions and allows prioritizing the place and timing of actions according to the economic resources available. The demands linked to the circular economy require enhancing the minimization of environmental impacts, seeking to provide greater durability and efficiency to resources.

Action Environments

Technology
modernization

strategy

Five business factors to guide technology modernization projects.

With the advent of technologies, information, and communication, organizations, both public and private, are facing a new model of competition and management, Youtec focuses on the search for new sources to add with our experience the added value to meet the criteria of effectiveness and efficiency required by customers.

Youtec focused technologies modernization to the possibility of reducing internal costs and their output, obtain competitive advantages using innovation, support in order to protect the risks that may arise and the technologies architecture.

Digital
transformation

Digital transformation is the integration of digital technology in all areas of a company, fundamentally changing the way it operates and provides value to its customers. Youtec offers a follow-up in the digital transformation of your company, focused on your business, training of human talent, and measurement of results.
Youtec collaborates in the development of a digital transformation plan in its three fundamental stages: stage, Action stage, and follow-up of the actions.

The evolution towards digital is based on four pillars:
technology, customer experience, corporate culture, and business objectives.

Digital transformation is a process that requires an open attitude to charge, emotional intelligence, and the ability to adapt to a changing environment, to approach such transformation effectively, it is necessary to pay attention to three key points that youtec recommends for those who want to transform their company:

  • Betting for cost-effective and flexible ways of working that will help to retain talent.

  • Implement an innovative leadership system focused on digital transformation

As a consequence of the above, youtec supports and collaborates in the three fundamentals points within the human capital transformation strategy

  • Retraining employees according to the type, sector, and demand of the environment making use of technology and driving imperatives to optimize resources.
  • Redirect human capital and resources to mobile work by optimizing and automating HR-related activities.
  • Train resources on the go, according to the demands or needs that arise

Process
control
and automation

Automatization is using technologies for the implementation of processes and procedures with the objective of reducing execution times through the use of integrated solutions.

  • Study of current processes and procedures.
  • Redefinition of processes based on process time reduction and information convergence
  • Definition of the tactical plan for automation
  • Follow-up to achieve the plan

Advantages of process automation

  • Allows you to gain a competitive advantage by promoting operational reliability
  • Reduce operating costs and increases the speed of implementation of support and development tasks
  • Promotes the uninterrupted work of the systems
