Description
“Road Transport Control System” – (IPS Code: 340081)
Axis 2 of subproject 4 of the operation entitled “Upgrading of the Mechanisms for the Protection of Labor Relations and Related Communication and Information Services Using ICT”
Project Scope
The Project aimed at the procurement of special, standardized equipment and the development of a central application for managing road transport inspections. The equipment is necessary for the road transport inspections to be carried out in the best possible way by SEPE Labour Inspectors, in accordance with the legislation. These inspections are carried out on the road or at company premises and concern the observance of the prescribed working hours of heavy goods vehicle drivers and the correct use and operation of the required in-vehicle inspection device (digital or analogue tachograph).
The central application for managing road transport inspections is necessary for the road transport inspections to be organised, carried out and utilised in the best possible way by SEPE Labour Inspectors.
Project Equipment
The equipment that the Contractor would supply through this project is standardized in sets called “Workshop Equipment”. Each such set includes portable tachograph data acquisition equipment, a laptop and special software for recording and analyzing the specific data and a portable printer for printing inspection notes and violations. In total, the supply of at least 300 such sets of equipment was required, while the Union also observed and delivered a minimum quantity of spare parts, at least equal to 10% of the equipment sets it supplied. These spare parts are complete equipment units and not components thereof. That is, complete devices (e.g. scanners, downloaders, portable computing devices) were made available as spare parts.
The Central Application
The “Central Application” was the tool for the collection, archiving, statistical analysis of audit data as well as for the planning and coordination of the execution of audits. Through a Web-based environment, the involved employees of SEPE have all the necessary tools that cover user and role management, audit management, audit data utilization, audit planning and statistical analysis.
In parallel with the present project, SEPE is implementing and developing an integrated information system with which significant interoperability requirements were met.
In addition to the supply of equipment and the development of the Central Application, the contractor also offered a series of “services” of training, pilot operation and technical support to SEPE.
