Excellence in innovation and technology

The pursuit of innovation and the incorporation of new technologies, focused on increasing efficiency, cutting costs and enhancing user satisfaction, is a central point of attention in CCR Group’s management. To this end, the performance of the Shared Services Center units is strategically important in adding innovative solutions to all businesses.

Since January 1, users of the toll roads operated by CCR Group have been receiving the Documento Fiscal Equivalente (DFE – document equivalent to a tax invoice), whereby it is possible to enter personal information on the website of the concessionaires in order to receive a toll charge receipt for tax purposes. The implementation of the new system involved joint work undertaken by several areas of the Shared Services Centers, including the Legal, Communication and Planning departments of all units.

The search for innovations and new constructive methods is also a constant feature in the Group’s business development and growth. To this end, the performance of the Road Research Center (CPR) of CCR Engelog is strategic and brings advantages from the point of view of cost reduction and environmental gains, making it possible to incorporate new technologies into operations on an ongoing basis.

CCR Engelog also worked in 2017 to implement the Vetor project, with the objective of improving project and investment management processes, with a focus on improving the performance model and boosting innovation.

Rodovias Conectadas

The Rodovias Conectadas (Connected Toll Roads) project, a partnership between CCR Group and the mobility application Waze, demonstrates the pursuit of innovation focused on user satisfaction. With this tool, drivers using the app can now receive important information to plan their trip on the toll roads managed by the Group, such as the location of the toll plazas and respective toll prices, the location of the SOS Usuário (emergency assistance for road users) bases and emergency telephones.
