In parallel, the application of these technologies in the field of infrastructure management and maintenance, which constitute one of the largest operating and running costs, will also be studied in order to increase its efficiency, safety and sustainability.

Additionally, the use of AI will be investigated to develop a comprehensive system that analyzes and manages large volumes of data from diverse sources. This system will facilitate the unified operation of infrastructures in real time and enable efficient process automation.

Interoperability tool

To meet these challenges, Tekniker will play a prominent role in the project thanks to its extensive experience and knowledge in the technologies studied in the initiative.

Among its tasks is the development of a tool that ensures interoperability in the management of building permits and compliance controls. “This solution will allow all stakeholders involved in the construction process, from authorities to companies, to access the same information in a consistent and efficient manner,” explains Francisco Javier Diez, a researcher at Tekniker.

At the same time, Tekniker will focus on the analysis, exploitation and processing of critical information from all phases of infrastructure construction and maintenance to improve the efficiency, safety, productivity, quality and sustainability of all processes.

“We will implement AI models that will optimize maintenance, thanks to the continuous monitoring of the progress and status of the infrastructure, proactively responding to maintenance needs,” the researcher concludes.

The INARTRANS 4.0 project, with a planned completion date of December 2026 and financed by the TransMisiones program of the CDTI and the State Research Agency, brings together a consortium made up of Tekniker, ACCIONA Construcción, GRUPO AZVI, INDRA Sistemas, JIG Internet Consulting, VIRTUALMECH, CTCON, INTROMAC, the University of Alcalá and the Polytechnic University of Madrid.
