The transportation area is typically associated with civil engineering (namely in terms of planning and infrastructures), but over the past few years INESC TEC has managed to gain a relevant position in this area due to the Associate Laboratory’s multidisciplinary nature. Transportations, mobility and logistics are the foundation of TEC4MOBILITY, an initiative that is taking shape to combine and promote skills in this domain at INESC TEC, and to interface with companies.

INESC TEC’s Centre for Industrial Engineering and Management (CEGI) is developing, in partnership with Guerin Car Rental Solutions, a tool that makes it possible to define the pricing of this car rental company in e-broker websites, intermediaries that represent and compare different competitors. This tool makes it possible to update the company’s profit by updating, several times of day, the prices on the e-brokers for each rental type and date searched by the client, based on the monitoring of the fleet occupation and prices of competitors. The project started in February.
