How can road agencies move from paying for the quantity of work delivered to paying for measurable results?

Output & Performance-Based Contracts (PBCs) are reshaping how road assets are managed, linking payments to defined service-level indicators and creating stronger incentives for contractors to improve efficiency, innovate, and deliver lasting results.

With performance-based approaches increasingly supported by institutions such as the World Bank Group and Asian Development Bank (ADB), PBCs are becoming an important tool for more sustainable and resilient road asset management.

IRF Global’s Output & Performance-Based Contracts for Preserving Road Assets Executive Seminar, taking place September 21–29 in , Georgia, will bring together international experts and practitioners to explore the business case for PBCs, risk allocation, client–contractor relationships, implementation strategies, and regional best practices.

Led by Dr. Asif Faiz and Janusz Sobieniak, both with extensive experience working with the World Bank and ADB, the program combines five days of intensive instruction with two days of technical site visits and culminates in an official IRF Certification.

Participants will also receive complimentary access to the 4th IRF Europe & Central Asia Regional Congress & Exhibition, September 30–October 2, in Tbilisi.

🤖 AI is moving into the operational toolkit of road agencies!

At , we are pleased to welcome Mikayel Avagyan, Chief Product Officer & AI Architect at TEV Technologies, to the Executive Session: “AI and Digital Tools for Road Agencies.”

With his expertise at the intersection of architecture, digital products and transportation technology, Mikayel will bring a technical perspective to the discussion on how emerging technologies can support road agencies.

The session will explore practical applications of AI and data-driven digital tools, from processing and interpreting complex road and traffic data to strengthening network monitoring, traffic operations, asset management and decision-support systems.

The key question: How can road agencies move from simply collecting data to using AI to generate actionable intelligence?

🚦Become a globally recognized IRF-Certified Road Safety Professional!

As transport systems evolve in scale and complexity, ensuring safer road infrastructure remains a shared responsibility. Road safety audits and inspections offer a structured, preventive approach to identifying design and operational risks, often before incidents occur.

With nearly 85% of countries applying such measures, as highlighted by the World Health Organization (WHO), the emphasis is increasingly placed on consistent and effective implementation.

This online training provides a practical framework to enhance expertise in road safety auditing enabling more informed decision-making, improved prioritization of interventions, and safer road networks overall.

Developed and delivered by the International Road Federation (IRF Global), the program reflects a commitment to advancing global road safety standards through knowledge sharing and professional development.

🗓️ September 14–24, 2026, | Online

The five-day “MEPDG Design and Manual of Practice” training with the Ministry of Works, Kingdom of Bahrain, is continuing with in-depth technical sessions on modern pavement design.

The training is covering the core principles of pavement design, including traffic and load analysis, material properties and selection criteria, key design inputs and parameters, and the fundamentals of structural design.

Participants are also exploring the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) approach, including data collection and analysis, specialized design software and tools, and practical applications through real-world case studies.

This topic is particularly important as traditional empirical methods alone are no longer sufficient to address today’s complex traffic loads, climate challenges, and performance expectations.

MEPDG provides a more accurate, science-based framework that enables engineers to develop longer-lasting, cost-effective, and resilient pavement designs tailored to local conditions.

Grateful to continue this valuable capacity-building journey with the Ministry of Works team.
