Research, development and funded projects

Research that can be verified: we list every project with the ITMS number, so you will find it in the project register.

We carry out research and development projects funded from European Union funds — from monitoring non-standard conditions around a nuclear power plant, through the localisation of autonomous drones in industrial halls, to assistive software for children with a visual impairment. We have certificate of competence to carry out research and development and we work with the academic sector.

Certificate of competence to carry out research and development

Qintec a.s. holds a certificate of competence to carry out research and development and is listed in the official register of certified organisations of the Ministry of Education, Research, Development and Youth of the Slovak Republic (list as at 22. 7. 2026). The certificate is valid for the years 2025–2031 — certificate (PDF).

Research that comes back into operation

Measurement of abnormal conditions around a nuclear power plant, autonomous UAVs in manufacturing, open public administration data and the European cyber security certification scheme. Each time it is the same thing: to verify whether a new approach holds up in real operation — and to carry what proves itself over into the solutions we deliver to customers.

Public administration · Open data

Development of a mobile app for monitoring public procurement

Public procurement on a phone: the app reads open data, saves time on record-keeping and searching, and less retyping means fewer errors in internal records.
