The document discusses the Metropolitan Transportation Authority's efforts to implement an enterprise asset management system. It notes that the MTA operates one of the largest transportation systems in the world, with nearly $1 trillion in physical assets. The goals of the asset management system are to create an effective management framework to support informed decision making regarding operational and capital needs for maintaining infrastructure assets. It also aims to justify funding requirements through effective long term planning over the asset lifecycle. The document outlines the key components of the MTA's asset management system, including asset information management, performance reporting, and alignment of agency strategies and objectives.

• The ASCE 2017 Report Card found the national grade for
infrastructure remains at a “D+”
• $4.6tn will be needed by 2025 to bring US infrastructure
to an acceptable standard
• Construction productivity has been flat for decades,
according to McKinsey research.
• Essential infrastructure systems such as water, energy
supply, and transportation will increasingly be
compromised by interrelated climate change impacts.

There no one definition, but this one by Cambridge Centre for Smart Infrastructure and Construction
covers the essence of smart infrastructure.
In a world where infrastructure is truly smart, sensing technologies are embedded in
infrastructure and the equipment it interacts with. These sensors are connected to a communication
backbone which allows real-time data acquisition and analysis. The information
gathered is analyzed, interpreted and delivered as reliable, robust and meaningful information to
infrastructure providers, who can then make better-informed decisions about the structural health and
maintenance of their assets.
In a sensing environment, infrastructure is able to respond in real time to users’ needs. Self-aware
infrastructure assets direct their own maintenance, leading to condition-based
maintenance, reduced down time and greater operational efficiency of the infrastructure overall.
Better information leads to an enhanced understanding of the behavior of infrastructure. The impact of
this will lead to transformations in the approaches to design and construction as well as
step changes in improved health and productivity, greater efficiency in design and performance, a low-
carbon society and sustainable urban planning and management.

The MTA operates one of the largest transportation systems in the world.
Our physical assets are valued at nearly $1,000,000,000,000
The MTA owns and operates 6,300 subway cars and 2,400
commuter rail cars. This is greater than all other US metro
rail and commuter railroads combined. The MTA’s 5,600 city
buses comprise America's largest bus fleet.

“The goal of Enterprise Asset Management is to create an effective
management system that supports informed decision making for
operational and capital needs relative to how we manage and maintain all
of our infrastructure assets.”
"There's a direct connection between safer service and better asset
management, and nothing is more important than the safety and security
of our customers. Nothing.”
“As we come under increased pressure from funders and other stakeholders,
we must become more effective at planning and delivering our projects
and services over the whole asset lifecycle. Unless we can fully justify
our funding requirements, we put our entire mission of providing world-class
transportation services for the New York metropolitan region at risk.”
