Making Transit Planning Transparent and Connected

A metropolitan transit authority oversaw rail extensions, roadway projects, and system upgrades. But every contractor, agency, and engineering team used separate tools. Reporting required weeks of consolidation. Public updates were often outdated the moment they were released.

They wanted modernization that didn’t add more complexity.

‎

What We Found

• Project data lived in disconnected systems and file shares
• Schedules were updated manually across several tools
• No shared visibility existed across agencies
• Community updates were reactive, not informative

The problem wasn’t effort — it was fragmentation.

‎

What We Did

• Created a shared project platform connecting all contractors and agencies
• Added live dashboards for milestones, budgets, and risks
• Automated progress reporting and public-facing updates
• Built audit-ready documentation for funding and governance

Everyone finally saw the same project in real time.

‎

Outcome & Takeaway

• Faster decision-making and fewer disputes
• Clear progress visibility for both leaders and the public
• More predictable delivery timelines

Digital transparency became a foundation for trust and efficiency.
