Integration Projects4P in R+R Burger und Partner AG

R+R Burger und Partner AG has taken over the Projects4P brand and integrated it as a new business unit.

Projects4P was founded and built up by our management board member Stefan Isler.

The services of the Projects4P division include project management consulting, project management training and interim project management.

These three elements are based on the innovative 4P Dynamo concept. This is based on a wealth of experience and includes a comprehensive and structured approach to develop project management skills in organizations in the long term.

Projects4P ideally complements the existing offering of R+R Burger und Partner AG.

While R+R Burger und Partner AG has made a name for itself in the management and cost consulting of infrastructure projects, Projects4P focuses on the individual development of maturity in project management of project-oriented organizations.

Research project bicycle traffic exposure

R+R is working together with the ZHAW and Pro Velo on the FEDRO research mandate MFZ_20_04E_03 Measurement of exposure to bicycle traffic until spring 2026. The aim of this research project is to evaluate existing methods for determining the mobility behavior of cyclists and to test a promising approach in a pilot study in practice. It involves determining the exposure, i.e., the distances traveled by cyclists, divided into the use of bicycles and e-bikes. Existing bicycle counts will also be integrated into the pilot study. Based on the findings, a proposal for the future calculation of exposure in bicycle traffic in Switzerland will be developed.

ERTMS UK Cost Analysis Digital Railways – Reducing Costs

Network Rail, Britain’s railway infrastructure operator, pursues a strategy of digitalising the national railway signalling systems by replacing the current interlocking technology, improving traffi cmanagement and introducing the European Train Control System ETCS. R+R validated the programme cost estimates and compared them to similar programmes in other European countries.

The validation of the British programme cost estimates pointed at potentials for reducing costs particularly in the sector of central signalling installations. Accordingly, the focus of the international cost benchmarking was set on ETCS level 2 projects and programmes, as well as on the replacement of central interlocking systems.

In a team with Morten Søndergaard, the director of the Danish signalling programme, Emch + Berger and Oskar Stalder, R+R investigated with the benchmarking partners on how to achieve an economically favourable programme through precursory measures, suitable specifi cations, contract strategies and appropriate project organisation. Our findings are based on the experience gained in comparable projects in the United Kingdom, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, the Netherlands, Germany, France, Italy and Switzerland.
