INNOVATIVE COMPONENT IN THE ROAD QUALITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

The aim of the study is to identify the role of the innovative component in the system of quality management of highways. An analysis of the proportion of new technologies and materials used to improve the quality of roads, the dynamics of accidents on sections of federal highways, where new technologies and materials were used, as well as the condition of roads was carried out. The data became the basis for the formation of factors that improve road safety. A regression model of the dependence of road safety on the quality of roads (with three variables) was developed. With the help of the model it is possible to predict the impact of changes in the variables on the number of road accidents. 
The study developed a system of quality management of roads and highlighted the innovative components, such as controlling effects, management tools, factors, innovative technologies and elements of the integral indicator of innovation. New horizons in the system of quality management of roads – innovation, which forms the need to improve all of its elements (planning, construction management, construction technology, its organization, organization of labor of employees), taking into account the practice of quality management of roads based on the standards of project management of the International Association of Project Management. This will improve the quality of the road object. As a result, there will be an economic effect from the introduction of the quality management system of road works. 
Roads are among the institutional support processes for the formation of public welfare and security of the country. However, there is still a problem of low satisfaction with the condition of roads by the population. Despite the active participation of the state in the development of the transport industry, quality management systems in Russian road organizations are not always effective. Most of them focus their attention on solving technical problems and issues of operational management. New horizons in the system of quality management of roads should open the program of innovative development of the state company “Russian Highways”. This program focuses on improving the quality of roads through the introduction of technological initiatives at all stages of road construction. Application of the principle “open innovations” strengthens the need to include the block of innovations in the standardized model of the quality management system (QMS). In this regard, it becomes obvious to develop a road quality management system taking into account the innovation component. 
The purpose of this study is to develop a system of quality management of roads, taking into account the innovative component. 
Method and methodology of work: in the process of work were used general scientific methods of research: analysis of scientific and educational literature; process approach; comparative analysis; system analysis, synthesis; method of correlation and regression analysis; methods of tabular and graphical representation of data, as well as standards of project management. 
Results: 
– A correlation and regression model of the dependence of road traffic safety on the quality of roads (on three variables) was developed; 
– developed a quality management system at all stages of road construction, taking into account the innovative component. 
Scope of the results: the proposed results can be used to improve the quality management system of roads in the Russian Federation.
