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.

SIGNALLING PROGRAMME – FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT

Banedanmark, the Danish railway infrastructure organisation, is planning a full replacement and reorganisation of safety technology throughout its entire network. The European signalling standard, ERTMS Level 2, is to be introduced across the entire area of the long-haul rail network. The Copenhagen S-Bane is to be equipped with a new CBTC signalling system, in line with the state of the art for suburban railways, which should also enable fully automated train operation at a later stage. The operational management will be brought together in three new traffi c control centres; the interlocking technology will be entirely replaced and will also undergo further centralisation. The new organisation must be prepared and trained to implement and operate the Signalling Programme.

In 2007 – 2008, a pre-project was developed as the basis for the fi nal political decision. Managing the investment and budgeting workstream, R+R developed the system defi nition for the cost estimate, compiled price catalogues, estimated the costs for the long-haul railway and S-Bane and compared them with previous cost estimates, calculated the annual appropriations for various migration strategies, and carried out strategic cost comparisons of technological alternatives.

From 2009 – 2012, R+R handled the commercial procurement of the main system contracts (S-Bane, Fjernbane East and West, Onboard), set up tender documents, evaluated off ers and led negotiations with bidders. Additional procurement procedures followed, e.g. for train radio, interface systems and fi xed telecommunications installations. In accordance with the awarded contracts, the budget was adjusted for two additional political milestones. From 2012 onwards, R+R tracked cost developments and led strategic studies on programme extensions. Among other things, R+R supervised the Business Case for (semi-) automatic train operation.
