Description of the Company

Created in 2005, Prorentsoft activities' are concentrated toward optimizing transports and logistics.
From specific studies to computerized solutions, Prorentsoft supports partners into their strategic decisions of rationalisation as well as dealing with direct services to transports, to all logistics into territories.
Prorentsoft co-develops and provides a commercial added-value to research from the CNRS ESPACE UMR 6012 laboratory of Geographie and the laboratory of computer sciences (LIFC) from Avignon's University .
These two entities have tied strong scientific relationships with the University of Franche-Comté computer laboratory (TADVANCE).
Prorentsoft relies on a strong scientific network.

Main tasks attributed and previous experience relevant to these tasks
Prorentsoft commercializes and supports the continuity of applied sofwares under licence into the field of Demand Responsive Transport, Routing Optimization and Operational Research.
This computerized solution engages geographical informations, along decisional systems for all transport solutions. These services aim toward more flexible transports organization, collective and individualized, since they are in effect only upon demand of the users.
These services are insured by adapted, reactive and available local vehicles.
These solutions are in use in several French territories:
since 2001 in the city of Besançon (DRT 'Evolis-gare') with Resad², and since 2006 in the "Pays du Doubs-Central" with Galeopsys (DRT 'Tadou').

Prorentsoft has been selected in the context of ANR's project (Agence Nationale de la Recherche): research and innovative ground transportation with Modulobus project.
Its experimental territory will be in cote-d'armor with its partner ITS Bretagne and Conseil Général.
