Ports & Transport

Our oldest department have undertaken projects of various kinds in a very large number of maritime and port environments, railways, traffic control, road transport, etc.

Some Ports & Transport Projects

• Our experts have collaborated in international projects to improve the maritime and port sector in each country, as the EU draft "PHARE" for Turkey. This work focuses on analysing the harbour terminals and proposing a plan for modernization, ranging from security to the traceability of containers and goods. We also propose the machinery needed, plan the expansion of infrastructures and prepare the design of the software portal for the harbours nets, for example. Finally, we develop the training plan for the stevedores and the plan for the prevention of occupational hazards for the stevedoring companies.


• We have designed the access control system and the automatic vehicles and containers recognition system for several ports, according with ISPS requirements. We use the latest technology in optical recognition and we also have established radio and GPS equipment for the fleet of trucks accessing the port. In the Port of Valencia, these have been adapted to receive and validate orders, routes, and all necessary documentation in the largest project of its kind carried out in the country and we have planned the next optical tracking system, RFID and biometrics to control people in each of the zones (with varying levels of protection) of the harbour.


• We have coordinated the design, on the basis of high security systems, of the first ERP for the port sector, which covers container depots, transporters, customs agents, railways, freight forwarders, etc. and is used today by many companies in several international ports.


• We have participated in the improvement and implementation of crane simulators developed by the University of Valencia, which has had been presented in several countries, as well as in other of their simulation systems.


• We develop business plans for ports and terminals (design, expansion projects, roads, bridges, railways, attracting lines and customers, staff training, etc.), and we provide the latest techniques in automation and information systems.
