Mobility as a service enterprise architecture - roger silvaRoger Silva
Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS) describes a shift away from personally-owned modes of transportation and towards mobility solutions that are consumed as a service. This is enabled by combining transportation services from public and private transportation providers through a unified gateway that creates and manages the trip, which users can pay for with a single account. The key concept behind MaaS is to offer travelers mobility solutions based on their travel needs.
This is a conceptual architecture model of a MaaS System.

Back in 2015, the U.S. Department of Transportation (U.S. DOT), under the leadership of Secretary Anthony Foxx, has
leveraged nearly $350 million in public and private funds for smart city and advanced transportation technologies. Building on
Beyond Traffic 2045, the Smart City Challenge provided a spark for cities looking to revolutionize their transportation systems
to help improve people’s lives. Through the Smart City Challenge, the Department committed up to $40 million to one winning
city. In response, cities leveraged an additional $500 million in private and public funding to help make their Smart City visions
real. And, in October 2016, Secretary Foxx announced an additional $65 million in grants to support community-driven
advanced technology transportation projects in cities across America, including 4 of the finalists in the Smart City Challenge.
By challenging American cities to use emerging transportation technologies to address their most pressing problems, the
Smart City Challenge aimed to spread innovation through a mixture of competition, collaboration, and experimentation.
But the Smart City Challenge was about more than just technology. We called on mayors to define their most pressing
transportation problems and envision bold new solutions that could change the face of transportation in our cities by meeting
the needs of residents of all ages and abilities; and bridging the digital divide so that everyone, not just the tech-savvy, can be
connected to everything their city has to offer.

Autonomous Vehicles and P3s: Vision of the FutureAndreas Mai
Keynote Andreas Mai, Executive Vice President Market Development & Digital Innovation, Keolis North America @ The Annual CCPPP National Conference in Toronto, November 6, 2018
We are in the early stages of a massively disruptive transformation of the transportation of people and goods. While autonomous technology is getting most of the attention today, an avalanche of digital technologies is driving much more exponential disruptions that have the potential to break the historic barriers between currently separated modes of personal, public and goods transportation and to topple the traditional business architectures of transportation companies. This presentation highlights some of the most disruptive trends and how new business models for public private partnerships could significantly reduce the cost of transportation for families and society.
At Finpro's ITS and MaaS seminar on May 4, Martyn Briggs from Frost & Sullivan discussed the converging trends that are leading to shift away from private cars, the new mobility business models that are becoming well established, and the potential impacts these services can realise in our cities now and in the future.

$5 Trillion Economic Value at Stake: Digitization of Road Transportation Andreas Mai
We are in the early stages of a massively disruptive shift to electric, connected, shared (“uberization”) and self-driven vehicles. Over the next ten years, the digitization of the transportation of people and goods has the potential to create $11.4 Trillion of economic value globally. During the same time, $6.4 Trillion of value is migrating to other stakeholders, resulting in a net present value of $5 Trillion. The underlying economic model integrates over 450 effects from numerous academic and industry studies into a comprehensive financial model that describes the flow of money between the potential “winners and losers” of this transformation of road transportation.
This presentation highlights key results of the study to assist business leaders and policy makers with their innovation, investment and partnership strategies to secure the benefits and minimize the collateral damage from the imminent disruption of the transportation industry.
Representatives from the Metropolitan Area Planning Agency, Verdis Group, University of Nebraska Medical Center and Greater Omaha Chamber of Commerce give presentations about efforts and strategies to help employers save resources by providing solutions to how employees get to work.

Impact Cities: delighted to be part of Impact Cities. Cities are laboratories for innovation in America. All politics are local and cities have more potential to positively impact local residents than any other form of government.
I live in Washington, work in Silicon Valley. For 30 years, I have invested in technology startups by day and talk public policy at night.
Prior to founding NGP, spent 12 years in emerging markets & Washington with the World Bank, IFC focused on public private partnerships for economic development
Billion dollar companies: UCweb, GanJi, Xiaomi, Heptagon, Rocket Fuel, Quikr, Deliveroo
At NGP we have come to Smart Cities through a focus on Smart Mobility. 17 investments globally.
Through these investments, I have had the opportunity to talk with transportation departments in over 25 major metro areas in America. Excited by the innovation seeing at the local level.
Today I would like to talk with you about innovation we are seeing in Smart Mobility and how it can improve the daily lives of people across America
1970s jingle: four quintessential American things - Baseball, hotdogs, apple pie and Chevrolet
Owning a car was buying a piece of the American dream – symbolized independence, affluence, adventure
All Americans aspired to own a car: Car ownership doubled from 1960 to 2007
But in cities across American, that dream has gone awry
Cars are expensive to own: costing over $12,000 annually in many major US cities
They are not used much: Cars sit idle 96% in parking lots of the day
Commuting is the low point of the day: people spend 54 minutes per day in cars and, in US cities, 20% of time spent in traffic jams
Cars now dictate how we live: Transportation drives city design. In America we have built our cities around the automobile, while in Europe they are build around public transportation.
Major European metro areas are twice as dense as US cities. Parking accounts for 25% of the coverage areas of US cities
Parking often doubles the cost of new buildings
And what return are we getting on that additional investment? Longer commute times.
Counter intuitively: Cities reliant on cars have long average commute times
The average daily commute in SF & LA is 30-60 minutes longer than in Berlin and Paris
Car commutes are also more costly. The average urban car cost is $1.20 per mile
In cities reliant on autos, families spend on average nearly 20% of their income on transportation
Fortunately, help is on the way
Transportation will change more in the next decade than it has in the past 50 years
Key drivers of innovation: (1) shared transportation; (2) multi-modal public transport; (3) electric vehicles; (3) ultimately, autonomous driving
To fully realized the value of these innovations, Smart Cities are taking center stage through creative, forward looking public private partnerships
Most prominent today is ride hailing: over 250M people use ride hailing globally
But recent studies show that ride hailing increases congestion, reduces public transport use and is more expensive
Instead, we need transportation alternatives that (1) reduce car reliance; (2) increase vehicle utilization – lower parking; (3) increase shared transport
In 20 years, no one should own a car for travel within cities. (car ownership dipped by 5%+ in cities in past decade – U Michigan 2006-12)
Car sharing still fledgling – only about 5M people globally using shared cars
but high potential: car sharing Replaces up to 13 cars, reduces car ownership by 50%, variety & flexibility
Car sharing examples: Zipcar, Maven, DriveNow, Getaround, Turo – working closely with cities across America to increase accessibility of shared cars (NGP has invested in car sharing leaders in Europe and India)
But car sharing is not enough: bigger gains can be achieved through use of public transport
The cheapest and quickest way to fix public transport is to improve 1st and last mile commute options
50% of transport time for public transport is in the 1st and last mile of commutes
Studies have shown that making bikes and scooters available at public railways increases the use of public transport by 25% (Minneapolis)
Last year, Seattle partners w/ Lime to make dockless bikes widely available and response tremendous: over 1M rides; 75% use to & from public transportation
Lime expanding fast: one new city each day
Many successful public private partnerships for shared bikes in just the past 10 years
Shared bikes are popular in NYC, DC, Portland, Chicago and SF.
Information essential for efficient multi-modal transport
Moovit offers a public transit app used in > 2600 cities used by 300M commuters
Moovit in Madrid: data partnership for real time transit info & urban transit planning
25% of residents (over 1M people) use Moovit to plan commutes in Madrid. And the response has been tremendous.
Since launch, user satisfaction with EMT Madrid has increased by 35% and public transit ridership has increased 5% in just 3 months
The potential for autonomous vehicles has received much attention … pleased to announce they will soon be coming soon to a city near you
Shared transport with larger vehicles promises faster, lower cost commutes with lower congestion
May Mobility: tested in Detroit – ridership on bus routes is up 50% with a very high user satisfaction rating (70+ NPS Score)
This week May Mobility will be rolling out its autonomous busts in Columbus, Ohio (3x+ service) and will roll out in two new cities in January.
The garage where Hewlett Packard was founded is a Silicon Valley icon for technology innovation
But the HP Garage of Future will be empty = no need for a car
Convert garages to AirBnB for rentals & use income to pay for optimal mix of public & private transport
A new American dream: where no one owns a car; where transport it cheap & healthy; where traffic jams are an anachronism; where commute times are 50% shorter; and where residents have freedom of choice of transportation alternatives
Can we do this? Yes we can!
