Quartic | Bringing Big Data to Highways Maintenance

Quartic Technologies today announced the release of their next-generation data analytics platform for highways maintenance and asset management. By bringing big data techniques to the asset management sector, Quartic’s technology drives better maintenance decisions – cutting costs and improving service.

Developed in partnership with organisations in the highways sector, Quartic has pioneered the use of artificial intelligence to automate maintenance decision making.  Their algorithms accurately predict carriageway deterioration, highlight opportunities for cost saving, and intelligently schedule treatments.

“Maintenance and asset management companies already have the data they need but have been underserved with respect to the use of this data. We’re producing the software for them to take advantage of modern analytics and machine learning.” said Arlo Guneratne Bryer, Quartic CEO. “It’s no longer simply a matter of having the data. The long term advantage will be gained by those who move first to do more with it. That’s where we come in.”

Quartic’s hosted Software As A Service (SaaS) platform plugs into industry-standard asset databases, geospatial data, visual and digital survey data (such as HMDIF), IoT data streams, and spreadsheets to build an integrated picture of asset condition and maintenance activity.  AI-driven insights are then exposed through a search interface, accessible by anyone in the office or field via a web browser, tablet or mobile device.

“We’ve designed the software to be useful to everyone in an organisation. Often, insights stay trapped inside internal data science teams and become disproportionately less useful as a result. We’re heavily focused on users and enabling them to make data-driven decisions. This combination is a real game changer for our customers.” said Alex Sparrow, Quartic CTO.

Quartic has started production deployments of its platform with a number of maintenance companies in the sector, and is now pursuing further trials on a no-commitment basis.
