Italferr’s Engineering & Operational Director Vincenzo Macello heads IES d.o.o.

With the nomination of one of its directors, Italferr, the Italian digital engineering and hi-tech company in Gruppo FS, consolidates its international leadership, aiming to strengthen strategic projects in Serbia and throughout the Balkans

A new head for IES d.o.o., the Serbian engineering company based in Belgrade, with Italferr as its single shareholder, a fundamental pillar of the Company’s operations in the country, which brings local expertise and Italferr’s technical team to the execution of important key projects.

With the nomination of Vincenzo Macello as Sole Director of IES d.o.o., Italferr’s commitment to support infrastructural development of the area is extended, while highlighting its role as a leading international player in the infrastructures sector, driving innovation and development, and engaging in a strategy of expansion and consolidation on the 5 Continents on which Italferr is active. This is a step ahead in increasing the operating capacity and strategic drive to optimise the integrated transport network by applying the Gruppo FS Italiane’s know-how to this strategic, constantly growing geographical area.

With the support of Italferr and its Foreign Development, Business Affairs and Sustainability Department headed by Attorney Irene Gionfriddo, IES d.o.o. aims to be a point of reference for significant infrastructural projects, contributing to modernising and increasing the efficiency of transport networks in the Balkans and around the world, improving safety, ecosystem compatibility, quality, and interconnection of transport networks.

The nomination of Eng. Macello, previously Italferr’s Engineering & Operations Director, will make it possible to extend synergy with the Italferr parent company, bringing BIM 4D and 5D to Serbia as well, along with new technologies for overseeing projects and worksites, making Italferr’s leadership in advanced digitalisation available as well. 

Italferr, with its BIM platforms and interdisciplinary teams, boasts sound expertise in planning and direction of works in complex infrastructural projects, digitalisation and innovation and sees the Balkans as a geographical area of fundamental interest for its international business.

With a significant portfolio of projects in Serbia and the entire Balkan region, of Italferr’s more significant initiatives there is involvement in modernisation of Serbia’s railway network. Italferr also played a key role in defining Serbia’s National Transportation Plan and saw to planning and directing works on modernising crucial railway routes, like the line between Niš and Brestovac and the Stara Pazova-Novi Sad line, which are essential for developing the paneuropean corridors.

In addition, Italferr has contributed to developing infrastructures in other Balkan countries with the Craiova-Caransebes railway line in Romania and the project to double the Hrvatski Leskovac-Karlovac section in Croatia. All of these demonstrate Italferr’s capacity for exporting Italian know-how in railway engineering and sustainable mobility, contributing to the development and interconnection of transport systems at an international level.
