With urbanization on the rise and nearly 70% of the world’s population expected to live in cities by 2050, innovative digital solutions are critical to public transport transformation. These solutions help authorities offer more frequent and reliable journeys for commuters while ensuring the safety of millions of people daily.

For Transport for London, this means one asset management system that can support the continuous improvement of their underground services across the city, boost reliability and frequency of these services, and help manage the increasing passenger numbers driven by London’s rapidly growing population.

Through the Arcadis Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) solution, we’ve facilitated the integration of existing disparate systems while also providing a platform that supports the whole lifecycle needs of metro transport organizations for both asset and safety management.

This transport management system enables Transport for London to maintain long-term capacity demands, plan capability development, deliver infrastructure change projects, manage multi-modal transport assets and systems, and operate day-to-day services at their safest and most efficient.

The system also incorporates an interface with (subcontract) maintainer systems for real-time fault detection and rectification. Additional integrations, such as pump alarm systems, enable automated workflows, driving further operational efficiency.
