Digital transformation of transport work planning — on domestic technology
Opturan is a Russian intelligent platform for planning shifts, duties and rosters. It is developed by ZashchitaInfoTrans, a state enterprise under the Russian Ministry of Transport, listed in the Russian software registry in the artificial intelligence category
Challenges facing a region
Opturan addresses the key objectives of government authorities in the transport sector and digital transformation
- Delivering on digitalisation mandates for the transport sector and adoption of artificial intelligence
- Import substitution of software in critical industry processes
- Improving the efficiency of transport spending while keeping the same volume of service
- Staff shortages at regional transit operators and the resulting missed trips
How Opturan addresses these challenges
- STEP 01
Domestic artificial intelligence technology
Shift, duty and roster planning is performed with artificial intelligence and discrete optimisation methods. The system is listed in the Russian software registry (entry No. 20933) in the artificial intelligence category
- STEP 02
Impact for regional operators
Denser shifts and a smaller required fleet mean lower operator costs for the same volume of transport work. The impact for a specific operator is assessed with test runs, using an evaluation methodology agreed in advance
- STEP 03
Governance and transparency
Computations are reproducible and documented: the authority and the operator receive substantiated “what if” scenarios for schedules, headcount and fleet, rather than expert guesses
- STEP 04
Regulatory compliance
The system enforces the Russian Ministry of Transport work-and-rest regulations (orders No. 424 for road transport and No. 339 for rail)
Legal and institutional status
- Developed by ZashchitaInfoTrans, a state enterprise under the Russian Ministry of Transport
- Listed in the Russian software registry — entry No. 20933, artificial intelligence category
- State software registration certificate No. 2023684294
- Data is processed and stored in the Russian Federation — compliant with federal law 152-FZ
- 100% Russian development — meets import substitution requirements
Impact measured in real deployments
Figures measured in real deployments with real line dispatch. For other industries, the impact is confirmed by test runs on the operator’s own data
One engine — for every service in the region
The platform applies wherever people and vehicles work in shifts
Public Transit in production
Proven in production: shifts, duties and rosters for drivers and rolling stock
Emergency Medical Services
A solution for EMS stations: crew duty around the clock
Fire Services
A solution for fire departments: watch schedules and crew composition
Utilities
A solution for water, heat and power utilities: crews and special vehicle duties
Test runs for your region
We offer free test runs at a single operator or unit. The effect evaluation methodology is agreed in advance, and the load on your team is minimal
