Sustainable management of existing infrastructure assets

Multinational software development and engineering design for predictive maintenance of bridges and viaducts

Franchetti Spa is an international group specialized in the planning, diagnosis and interventions aimed at safety and predictive scheduling of maintenance activities on infrastructural networks.

From the Rio-Niterói Bridge to the Anita Garibaldi Bridge in Brazil, one of the longest in the world, to over 150 km of viaducts and bridges in Italy, Franchetti Spa has worked on almost 40,000 equivalent bridges. Today, the database of data in its possession on bridges and viaducts that connect roads, highways and railways around the world represents a fundamental asset for assessing the state of health of infrastructures in the most advanced countries.

Thanks to pioneering work in the field of predictive maintenance, through algorithms based on artificial intelligence, the group offers to concessionaires and investors an indispensable tool for optimizing investments and correctly planning maintenance interventions, as a necessary condition for guaranteeing safety of goods and people and the sustainability of costs over time.
