NUMBER: Working Paper ITLS-WP-19-05 TITLE: Collaboration as a service (CaaS) to fully integrate public transportation – lessons from long distance travel to reimagine Mobility as a Service Integrated mobility aims to improve multimodal integration to ABSTRACT: make public transport an attractive alternative to private transport. This paper critically reviews extant literature and current public transport governance frameworks of both macro and micro transport operators. Our aim is to extent the concept of Mobility-as-a-Service (MaaS), a proposed coordination mechanism for public transport that in our view is yet to prove its commercial viability and general acceptance. Drawing from the airline experience, we propose that smart ticketing systems, providing Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) can be extended with governance and operational processes that enhance their ability to facilitate Collaboration-as-a-Service (CaaS) to offer a reimagined MaaS 2.0 = CaaS + SaaS. Rather than using the traditional MaaS broker, CaaS incorporates operators more fully and utilises their commercial self-interest to deliver commercially viable and attractive integrated public transport solutions to consumers. This would also facilitate more collaboration of private sector operators into public transport with potentially new opportunities for taxi/rideshare/bikeshare operators and cross geographical transport providers (i.e.

  • Cityrail Performance Update
    Sydney Trains Performance Update Comparison with International Benchmarking Groups [2018 data] • Membership of international benchmarking groups allows Sydney Trains to compare its performance to international peers and, through sharing best practices, identify opportunities for improvement. • Sydney Trains belongs to the International Suburban Railway Benchmarking Group (ISBeRG), which comprises 14 suburban railways. Typically, these railways link the suburbs to the CBD, with longer lines and larger networks than metros, but with fewer, longer, passenger journeys. Sydney Trains joined this group in 2011. • Sydney Trains is also a member of the ‘Nova’ group, which is part of the wider ‘Community of Metros’. The Community of Metros consists of: o ‘CoMET’, a group of 20 of the world’s largest metros. Its constituents typically have more than 500 million passenger journeys per annum. o ‘Nova’ is a group of 22 small to medium-sized metros, typically with fewer than 500 million passenger journeys per annum. Sydney Trains joined the Nova benchmarking group in September 2007. • Benchmarking between the members of the various groups is undertaken annually. This document provides a provisional update of selected charts from Sydney Trains’ previously published report and shows results for the calendar years 2014 to 2018. To preserve confidentiality of other members’ data, Sydney Trains’ performance is compared to the: o average of all ISBeRG Members o average of all CoMET Members o average of all Nova Members o individual ISBeRG members, on an anonymised basis • In some cases there are changes to previously published figures due to revision of data. Comparison to averages may disguise some significant ‘highs’ and ‘lows’ in performance: individual results within each group may vary significantly.
