Urban roads deserve smart maintenance

smartPMS uses data from connected vehicles and artificial intelligence to monitor, predict, and optimize road network maintenance.

The Problem

Monitoringroad networks is too expensive. Optimizing their maintenance shouldn’t be.

We need smarter approaches to plan maintenance and make better use of public resources.

  • Extensive and complex

    Urban roads form extensive networks that are difficult to inspect systematically using traditional methods.

  • Non-existent monitoring

    Existing instrumental solutions (laser scanners, profilometers) cost hundreds of euros per kilometer, plus fixed activation costs.

  • 85-90%

    of roads in the EU are urban, local, and regional

    For more information
  • Monitoring of local road networks is unsustainable

  • Reactive maintenance

    Action is taken only after damage is severe. No preventive planning, no optimization of the available budget.

  • Unoptimized budgets

    Without network monitoring based on engineering parameters, it is difficult to plan interventions and allocate resources for maintenance.

The Solution

Smart roads, budget under control

  • Road condition maps

    Interactive browser-based visualization of the condition of every section of the municipal road network.

  • Deterioration forecasts

    AI models that predict road conditions up to 24 months in advance for proactive planning.

  • Priority maintenance list

    Automatic ranking of roads requiring repair, based on severity, traffic volume, and impact.

  • Budget optimization

    Algorithms that maximize the benefit of interventions within the available budget.

  • Uncertainty

    No objective data to determine where and when to intervene

  • Reactive maintenance

    Maintenance and repairs occur too late

  • Emergency

    Urgent interventions with much higher costs

  • Inconsistency

    Irregular monitoring not guided by engineering parameters

How it works

From the road o data, from data to decisio

Data collection

Connected private vehicles and/or integration of additional data from other low-cost technologies.

AI processing

ML algorithms calculate quality indices for each road segment, with continuous monitoring.

Interactive dashboard

Up-to-date maps, predictions of deterioration and priority interventions, accessible via browser without installation.

Optimized decisions

The administration proactively plans interventions, maximizing the available quality-to-cost ratio.

Impact

A real impact across four dimensions

Environmental

Smoother roads reduce fuel consumption, vehicle emissions, and traffic congestion in critical areas.

Economic

Continuous monitoring at just a few dozen euros per kilometer per year, with proactive planning and reduced costs from emergencies.

Social

Safer roads for everyone: fewer accidents, smoother daily commutes

Governance

Transparent decisions based on objective data, simplified reporting, and compliance with the Digital Compass 2030.

Key benefits

Reasons to choose SmartPMS

  • Cost leadership

    Smart urban management and integrated predictive capabilities. Superior quality and an optimized cost model, designed to maximize operational value and sustainability.

  • Urban specialization

    Focus on local and regional roads, with monitoring and management services tailored to the needs of Italian and European municipalities.

  • Predictive Intelligence

    AI-based deterioration forecasts up to 24 months in advance. Most competitors offer only real-time monitoring, with no forward-looking perspective.

  • Accessible technology

    Interactive browser-based mapping, with no installation or dedicated hardware required. Also accessible to road operators with limited technical resources or tight budgets.

  • Crowd-Sourced Data

    The system enables monitoring of the entire network using connected private vehicles already in circulation, with automatic coverage based on the geographic availability of the technology. Further detailed analysis can be performed using advanced visual technologies assisted by AI

  • Automatic reporting

    Reports generated by the platform in digital format. Every spending decision is traceable, monitorable, and documentable.

FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions

From emergency management to data-driven planning: clear answers on how SmartPMS is revolutionizing the monitoring of your city
How is road quality data collected without expensive sensors?

We use big data from connected private vehicles for network analysis and other low-cost technologies for detailed analysis. This data is then processed using proprietary machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms to map the condition of road surfaces.

How does smartPMS help save public funds?

The platform enables a shift from “reactive” maintenance (intervening when damage is already severe and costly) to “proactive” maintenance. We provide a list of priority interventions based on engineering parameters that optimizes the use of available funds, reducing waste and emergency repairs.

What is meant by “Predictive Intelligence” in road maintenance?

Unlike traditional methods that only capture the present, our toolkit analyzes wear trends to predict future degradation up to 24 months in advance. This predictive capability is a distinctive advantage that most competitors in the market lack.

Do you need specialized technical staff to use the platform?

No. The platform has been designed as your decision-making support service. Furthermore, the platform has been designed to be user-friendly and accessible even to municipalities with limited technical resources. All information can be viewed via an interactive map accessible directly through a web browser, making data management simple and intuitive.

How much does the service cost compared to traditional monitoring methods?

Traditional instrumental monitoring can cost hundreds of euros per kilometer, in addition to fixed intervention costs. smartPMS offers a cost advantage, reducing costs to tens of euros, while ensuring continuous monitoring rather than a one-time assessment.
