The report outlines the analysis of MYKI project as a new technologically advanced smart card based solution which has scanning capability to simplify the validating process. Many have argued that the system has not been successful in term of its implementation. Problem arises during the implementation period that causes delay for many years. The business reports requested mainly discusses and examines all aspect of current problem situation that lies within MYKI as mass-ticketing system project. To satisfy requirement given, analysts utilise Soft System Methodology (SSM) to identify and explain problem situation within MYKI project. Selected blogs, articles and textbooks have been used as references to improve analyst understanding of the actual problem within MYKI project before presenting analysis and constructing models. Page 3 of 23 FIT-5111: MYKI System INTRODUCTION MYKI system is the contactless smartcard ticketing system that is being implemented in the state of Victoria, Australia developed by KAMCO (Keane Australia Micropayment Consortium), a wholly owned subsidiary of the American company Keane Inc. Initiated with a total estimated cost of $ 494 million, MYKI’s introduction has been delayed and the delayed project has been expected to reach an estimate of $1.35 billion. This business report analyses the important aspects considered in determining problem situation within MYKI focusing on those issues that are forefront in causing delay with regards to the rollout of the system. The report starts with rich picture of problem situation then followed by details of possible problem identified along with its problem owners. The third part of report presents the political and cultural analysis involved in MYKI project. Report then continues with discussion on how MYKI as relevant system should provide benefits to commuters. Root Definition, CATWOE analysis and Conceptual models of MYKI viewed from three chosen stakeholders are examined in fifth section of this report. In the sixth section, report is concluded by presenting a comparison of MYKI project in Melbourne/Victoria with another similar ticketing system (OCTOPUS) which has been successfully implemented in Hong Kong.

Lack of indication or freezing Commuters causes confusion amongst passengers whether they have touched-on and touched-off from the system. Lack of commuter awareness, training towards the TTA, KAMCO new system. Inadequate support from representatives. Web Application not robust and responsive. TTA, KAMCO Time consuming manual top-ups on buses causing Commuters, Drivers delays in journey times. MYKI not meeting expected rollout timelines, budget TTA, Government, KAMCO over-runs. Retailer commission not yet clearly defined. Retailer TABLE 2: PROBLEM AND PROBLEM OWNERS Based on the problem owner table above, it can be ascertained that the main stakeholders in this project include the Commuters, TTA (Transport Ticketing Authority) and KAMCO. Page 7 of 23 FIT-5111: MYKI System 3. POLITICAL AND CULTURAL ANALYSIS POLITICAL ANALYSIS The Victorian Government approved the project on replacing the current public transport system – the MetCard system by investing a large amount of money in the contactless smartcard ticketing system that is called MYKI – “It’s your key”. The reason for the new system is that the number of Victorian is increasing and the system helps commuters quickly catch and get on their train, tram or bus (Lucas, 2009). Moreover, the Transport Ticketing Authority (TTA) who is responsible for the delivery and management of MYKI, pointed out goals for developing the new ticketing system such as a successful transition from MetCard ticketing systems to the new MYKI, the new and reliable ticketing system which is not only accepted and trusted by Victorian but also satisfy the needs of public transport (MYKI). On the other hand, the Public Transport User Association (PTUA) posed a question why the Smartcard system is implemented while the current system – MetCard system still provides commuters good and necessary services. For example, a contactless validating mechanism using radio frequencies is also adopted in the MetCard system. (Wiki, 2010) In addition to the PTUA, public media said that there was a doubt in winning a contract of developing the Smartcard system from American IT firm Keane's KAMCO. Furthermore, it was reported that after meeting with representatives of one of the bidders, one of staff members of the Transport Ticketing Authority (TTA) left a flash drive in a meeting room. However, investigators in the Auditor-General's office did not find out evidence supporting for the investigation. Therefore, in their final reports to Parliament, there was none of these above concerns were included (Wiki, 2010). This may seem to take more time to investigate in order to make the above things clear. Ministry of transport provides funding for this project and wants to get it live before November 2010 elections. On the other hand, the opposite political party criticizes the Labor government for spending so much tax-payer’s money on MYKI. If by chance, the MYKI system is not live by Page 8 of

CONTENTS OVERVIEW 2 SMARTCARD TECHNOLOGY 3 ADVANTAGES OF SMARTCARD TICKETING 3 CHALLENGES FOR IMPLEMENTATION 6 SMARTCARD TICKETING IN AUSTRALIA 8 SMARTCARD TICKETING INTERNATIONALLY 10 INNOVATION IN SMARTCARD TECHNOLOGY 12 LOOKING AHEAD 14 CONCLUDING REMARKS 14 FOR FURTHER INFORMATION PLEASE CONTACT: CAROLINE WILKIE NATIONAL MANAGER, AVIATION & TRANSPORT TOURISM & TRANSPORT FORUM (TTF) P | 02 9240 2000 E | [email protected] www.ttf.org.au In short: 1. Smartcard ticketing provides convenience for commuters and efficiency gains for transport service providers. 2. Smartcard systems have been introduced in Australian cities with varying degrees of success. 3. International experience suggests that successful implementation may take many years, and difficulties are commonplace. 4. Overall, the benefits of smartcard ticketing overwhelmingly outweigh the costs and challenges that may arise in implementation. Overview Smartcard technology is being implemented around the world as a substitute for cash transactions in various capacities. When applied to public transport fare collection, smartcards eliminate the need for commuters to queue for tickets and reduce the burden on transport providers to process fare transactions. In recent years, benefits such as decreased travel times and general convenience to commuters have driven a shift towards smartcard ticketing systems on public transport systems in Australia and around the world. As well as providing more efficient transport services to commuters, smartcard ticketing systems enable service providers and transit authorities to collect comprehensive data on the travel behaviour of commuters.

Robert Smith MLC The Hon. Jenny Lindell MP President Speaker Legislative Council Legislative Assembly Parliament House Parliament House Melbourne Melbourne Dear Presiding Officers Under the provisions of section 16AB of the Audit Act 1994, I transmit my report on New Ticketing System Tender together with a good practice guide titled Public Sector Procurement: Turning Principles into Practice. Yours faithfully DDR PEARSON Auditor-General 31 October 2007 Foreword International experience has confirmed that developing reliable and effective public transport ticketing systems is both difficult and expensive. Victoria’s ‘smartcard’ public transport ticketing system (NTS) is a case in point. It involves a government investment of more than $500 million, and it promises to transform the operations of the public transport network. In examining the conduct, governance and probity arrangements of the NTS tender, this audit has reported a number of commendable features: • the Transport Ticketing Authority (TTA) adopted an innovative, highly ‘interactive’ approach to the tender • the tender was largely successful in terms of timeliness and value for money • there were also areas of good practice in the conduct of the tender. With respect to the probity of the NTS tender, and prior to the conduct of this audit, the then Minister for Transport requested this Office to investigate an alleged leak of confidential information from the NTS tender.
