init software and hardware technology in high demand

Smart ticketing is one of the most sought after technologies among transport operators worldwide, as are the latest generation control systems which, in addition to ticketing solutions, also integrate the management and "smart charging" of electric vehicles. The control system MOBILE - ITCSnextGen also increases the efficiency of transport operations and the quality of travel for passengers, using artificial intelligence. With the web-based variant MOBILE-ITCSsmart as a pay-per-use solution, init opens up new customer groups. We are seeing an increasing number of tenders for major projects in ticketing and control systems. 'In particular, we expect to see an increase in our share of the software market and we should therefore be able to profit from this in the future," Greschner said confidently.

The development of innovative passenger counting and video systems was particularly pleasing and a very high market share has been achieved as a result of this superior technology.

A new market is provided by the control system MOBILE-ITCSrail, which serves the special features of railway systems and numerous other railway specific interfaces. We see great potential in using it for trams and regional and metro trains," the CEO emphasised. The Albtalverkehrsgesellschaft (AVG) in Karlsruhe is the first customer to use this system, operating a network of 550 km.

A particular growth driver for init is the conversion of vehicle fleets in public transport to emission-free or electric vehicles. For this purpose, init has developed the integrated software product suite eMOBILE, which optimises all processes, from the simulation and planning of services and processes, to depot and charging management and operational control, to range forecasting and consumption analysis. For its partner KEOLIS, init is in the process of equipping two of the largest electric bus fleets in Europe, based in the Netherlands and Norway.
