Our team can thoroughly assess complex operating models and analyze what is working and where improvements can be made. The application of digital data and operational modeling tools allow us to assess multiple scenarios maximizing the benefit to customers and potentially reducing operating costs.

We work with a range of partners including transit agencies, commuter and intercity railroads, operating companies, new market entrants, departments of transportation, passenger advocacy groups and developers. We work at both the strategic level developing policy and guidance, and the tactical level diagnosing and resolving deployment problems. Our core offer includes:
