Innovation projects – R+D+i
We live our client’s own reality to devise the exact tool.
In PROCONSI we understand Investigation, Development and Innovation as the base of our global strategy. Our commitment to innovation can be seen in the existence of a consolidated R+D+i department, composed by a team of people who are constantly investigating about the latest available technologies, developing new solutions and putting innovation in each of the products that are placed on the market. Only by relying on this team, on its continuous training and specialisation, competitiveness and the expected results are achieved.
The investment in R+D+i grows every year for being considered as the only way not to be left behind, to offer our clients the solutions, which they really need and to place on the market real innovative products.
Knowledge institutions.
In Proconsi we highly value collaboration between the academic and business communities, keeping a continuous relationship not only with universities whereas with regional, national and international research centres. The effective collaboration between both areas of knowledge helps to carry out successful projects, which set on the market high-impact solutions and that use the most innovative technology.
Work with different groups of companies in various fields is brought about in a continuous way, developing collaborative projects or carrying out measures considered to be of interest for the promotion of their common good.
MOBILITY PROJECTS.
Proconsi relies on applications to improve workers’ mobility, optimizing resources, improving communication amongst the company’s members, contributing to cost savings, avoiding duplication of paper data entry with its further processing and in general improving business competitiveness.
Our activity focuses on the design and “Turn-key” system installation in the mobility industry, integrating the equipment with applications connected with the company’s central systems. Amongst other solutions, we offer mobile applications for petrol home delivery (control over all delivery processes), commercial distribution or presales (digital catalogue and CRM), bicycle loan management (with GPS tracking), dispensation of the mobile veterinary prescription linked to the electronic ID card and management and implantation of visual exercise therapy.
Closely following trends in new technologies, amongst Proconsi’s mobility projects, we can find applications development for IOS and Android systems, such as apps to facilitate transport information to the user, to apply for and/or share a taxy, to boost the trade sector, to promote tourism in the cities or for events tracking and organization.
SMART CITY PROJECTS
Increasingly, technology is playing a stronger role within urban infrastructures. The so-called smart cities are doted with the appropriated technology so that their public services, such as passenger transport or municipal services management, are more efficient and, overall, more accessible for citizens.
Therefore, in today’s society, an adequate plan on transport systems falls on its economical impulse. Amongst the most important necessities that transport must satisfy, stress relies on mobility and people’s displacement.
In Proconsi we invest in improving the innovative capacity that is required to face the important technological challenges in key areas such as transport, integrating its products with the different emerging mobile technologies.
We offer efficient and advanced transport solutions such as the information and multimedia communication system for passenger transport by bus (player digital signature), issuing tickets, integral management of vehicle fleets for passenger transport, intelligent predicting system of bus arrival times to some points in urban or interurban route, locating system for mobile units and control system for school transport fleets.
Another fundamental technology for smart cities is the Citizen Report Card. It is an intelligent technological card without contact, which simplifies the present and future use of the municipal services to the citizens. These services become manageable and close, in line with citizens necessities. The citizen report card, for personal and non-transferable use, simplifies and unifies the identification system and the payment of several municipal services (urban transport, access to pedestrian zones, bicycle loan, electronic wallet, sports facilities access, payment of the municipal parking fee-ORA, etc.).
