Up to 115,000 production kilometers and 8,600 daily trips will be managed by our company in the next few years. Likewise, the five carriers making up the Consortium will benefit from the power of the GoalBus solutions to schedule the shifts of the almost 1,000 drivers and 800 conductors in the system.
The Spanish multinational has a strategic interest in the Brazilian market and, consequently, had a presence there since 2012, when it opened a technical office operated by its own staff (the office recently moved to Rio de Janeiro). Goal Systems will soon open another office in Sao Paulo in order to be even closer to clients. Goal Systems says its clients are companies with projects as ground-breaking as the BRT (Bus Rapid Transit) project in Rio— for which Goal Systems will schedule all its trunk and feeder systems, which have already reached a 1,000 buses. In addition, Goal Systems has struck a global agreement whereby its solutions will schedule all of Rio de Janeiro’s current and future BRT systems, which comprise up to 3,000 units.
