Our Service Solutions



Connected Mobility & Systems Operations

We help federal, state and commercial clients advance safe, smart, and secure transportation systems. By combining data, technology and deep technical expertise, we improve mobility services, infrastructure, and operations, enabling high-value decisions, greater insight, and better outcomes for travelers, and communities.

Human Factors & Safety

We provide a human-centered approach to develop and evaluate advanced technologies, systems, approaches, and products. We apply human factors, behavioral science and engineering tools and techniques to address the safety needs and requirements of system and vehicle users, infrastructure operators and maintainers on highways, roads and streets.

Deployment Support, Testing & Independent Evaluation

As an independent, trusted mission partner, we help clients evaluate and deploy emerging technologies that yield positive ROI and performance outcomes and improve transportation services. We provide full lifecycle support for deployments, including practical strategies for scaling technology and tools for workforce development, stakeholder outreach, and technical assistance. We deliver practical solutions that reduce deployment risk.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) & Data Analytics

We help clients turn complex transportation data into decision-quality information and actionable insights. We enable safe and trustworthy AI-driven operations across increasingly connected transportation ecosystems. We help clients develop trusted, explainable, and transparent AI governance frameworks to support responsible AI use.

Roadway Digital Infrastructure & Corridors

We help transportation agencies and organizations develop, deploy, and support roadway digital infrastructure and AI-enabled transportation system management and operations. We help clients deploy tools for predictive analytics, intelligent asset monitoring, and decision support to enhance workflows and project delivery. We help clients integrate data from vehicles, sensors, operational systems, and external partners to promote trusted and interoperable data exchange that is designed for scalability.

Cyber-Physical Systems and Security

We help clients secure connected, automated and intelligent transportation systems (ITS) and services against evolving cyber threats. Our experts evaluate security architectures for connected vehicles (CV), automated vehicles (AV) and cooperative driving automation (CDA) technologies and work to develop strategies that strengthen resilience, address vulnerabilities, and maintain digital trust.

Perspectives on Catalyzing & Accelerating Deployment of Next-Gen Mobility Technologies


Closing the Pilot-to-Scale Gap in Intelligent Mobility


Deploying innovative transportation technology at scale is a long term commitment for an agency and community to move past the “messy middle” where a promising technology has demonstrated value/benefit in a relatively limited deployment but has not yet become sufficiently replicable, economically/fiscally sustainable, or part of standard practice. In this series, Battelle explores the factors that can ignite momentum toward scale and break down barriers that continue to hold connected, AI-enabled, and autonomous transportation back from scalability. Together, these executive briefs ask a defining question for the next era of intelligent connected mobility technologies: what will it take to scale?

DOWNLOAD THE INTRODUCTION

Deployment of a technology feels like the finish line but it may actually be far from it. The hardest mile may be crossing the distance between a promising tech deployment and lasting impact. In the first of three Executive Briefs we explore where scale breaks down, why the messy middle matters, and how coordinated action can help transportation innovations move from successful somewhere to replicable everywhere.

DOWNLOAD EXECUTIVE BRIEF #1

Many transportation technologies prove their value in pilot programs but struggle to achieve widespread adoption. We explore 10 critical factors that can help transportation leaders move connected, AI-enabled and autonomous mobility solutions from demonstration to deployment at scale.

DOWNLOAD EXECUTIVE BRIEF #2

Why do so many transportation technologies succeed in pilots but struggle to achieve widespread adoption? This third Executive Brief examines 7 of the most significant barriers preventing connected, AI-enabled and autonomous mobility solutions from reaching widespread adaption.
