In today’s world we frequently encounter difficulties with organizing and analyzing vast
amounts of data. Data in itself has no value and can only become valuable once
reorganized, arranged and analyzed in the correct way. We cannot act on the basis of the
data, if we do not understand the data we are given, and we cannot understand the
information until it is rearranged correctly and afterwards analyzed.
The state of public roads in Slovenia indicates insufficient maintenance of the existing
infrastructure. In recent years, the awareness of the importance of the above mentioned
problem has increased, however, the problem should be approached systematically. In the
area of regular maintenance of the infrastructure it is important to create a system which will
ensure the optimal use of financial resources. The concession of services of general
economic interest is a public procurement public-private partnership, therefore the role of
control over the regular maintenance is especially important. All parties, however, are having
difficulties with managing and correctly analyzing the data. A major player in the collection of
data is the VGRC (Maintenance of the main and regional roads) system. However, it does
not analyze data to the level required. For these reasons we have decided to create a design
for the VGRC application upgrade. The primary goal of the application would be to allow its
users fast and simple data analysis. We believe that this would greatly contribute to the more
efficient use of financial resources and to the improved quality of public road maintenance.
