The country’s economic development and people’s lives require reliable transportation and logistics services. Therefore, road maintenance policies and techniques must be more comprehensive to ensure transportation infrastructure operations’ efficiency. The inefficiency of road maintenance, among others, is due to the failure to identify and predict the level of damage that can cause fundamental data anomalies. Therefore, the current scientific development of road maintenance must be able to take advantage of the convenience of technology. Widespread technology implementation on the Internet of Think (IoT), big data, and data mining (DM) can be a solution to developing a better pavement management system. However, implementing these technologies is challenging due to the weak conception and availability of currently available resources. This paper offers a pavement system management implementation concept that can be developed in Indonesia to improve the existing system. The study results show that IoT, big data, and DM are believed to support a more intelligent and comprehensive pavement management system. The concept offered consists of three main things: identification of damage and 3D pavement modeling, data analysis, decision support systems, and collaboration of intelligent solutions in implementing maintenance in the field. This paper is equipped with an illustration of the concept of road maintenance based on IoT, big data, and DM, which can be implemented intelligently and simply in Indonesia.

The International Roughness Index (IRI) is widespread in measuring road performance. However, travel time is a more critical benchmark in measuring road performance and the transportation system's performance. Therefore, new studies and models are needed to determine the relationship between IRI and travel time to obtain a segment performance function model influenced by road conditions. The study begins with a traffic condition survey to obtain vehicle travel time data on various road conditions. Assessment of road conditions uses the value of road surface flatness obtained from the results of Hawkeye measurements by carrying out actual travel throughout the national road network of Sulawesi Island. The study results show that the IRI value greatly influences the achievement of travel time as a road performance indicator in Indonesia. The equation of the relationship function of the vehicle travel time in free flow with the value of the flatness of the road surface is y=−6,062x2 +1,068x−1,0873 with R2 0,9314. At the same time, the equation of travel time as a function of road performance is ta = α1 (v/c)β + α1 (v/c) - 6,062x2 + 1,068x - 1,0873.
