Ferrovial, a Spanish based multinational company, has collaborated with US technology consulting firm DXC Technology to create the Quercus platform, which aims to accelerate and scale the deployment of
Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) throughout the infrastructure company's businesses and assets. DXC will manage the maintenance, development, and marketing of Quercus, which is based on a Ferrovial
Generative AI project. Microsoft will offer the technology foundation for scaling the platform.
Quercus is a collection of technical components and business logic that will serve as the foundation for growing the usage of AI and developing stable, rapid, and successful solutions for all types of businesses and sectors. It comprises the technical components required to secure data confidentiality and privacy, as well as the capacity to interact with other systems and coordinate many Generative Artificial Intelligence models.
Quercus' development capabilities will allow businesses to shorten the time required to create innovative solutions tailored to their specific demands. The platform's first iteration has already enabled Ferrovial to provide a marketplace of
Generative AI solutions, including a common task assistant that can be used by any employee as well as Human Resources and Cybersecurity specialists.
"The journey has only just begun. In cooperation with DXC and with Microsoft's technology, Ferrovial expects to roll this technology out in dozens of cases. Quercus will be very beneficial in optimizing processes, generating designs, simplifying applications for worker health and safety, and, generally, improving its operations," said Dimitris Bountolos, CIIO of Ferrovial, at the signature of the agreement in Madrid. The event was also attended by DXC Technology Global CEO, Raul Fernandez, DXC Technology Europe Market Leader, Juan Parra, and Microsoft Spain President, Alberto Granados.
