Primarily car user and drives everywhere they want to go

Needs Optimised travel with a pleasurable travel experience

Flexibility to accommodate multiple and last minute changing schedules

Pain Points Consistent unreliability, lack of live information and updates

Public transport doesn’t run to their schedule and is an additional cost on top of the car sitting in the garage

What can MaaS do?

Provide them with more information about their journey and options to make them feel in control

Provide them with last minute travel choices and flexibility

MaaS Business Model Review

Commercially sensitive (do not share without prior approval from Atkins and TfGM)

• Model A: TfGM is the MaaS operator and uses in-house resources –direct

• Model B: TfGM is the MaaS operator but outsources all of its responsibilities (becomes commissioning authority) – external provision of services

• Model C: TfGM is the MaaS operator but outsources all of its responsibilities except financial transactions – operational commissioning

• Model D: TfGM is part of a MaaS joint venture formed to manage and operate the system – joint provision eg partnership

• Model E: TfGM is the MaaS operator but shares platform/resources with other providers to make financial savings and bring efficiency – Spin-out, mutual

• Model F: Private sector is the MaaS operator and has its full control on its operation – private sector operation
