About this webinar

Mobility as a Service (MaaS) has made it past the hype and the public transport community has learned from first installations – both, in terms of what should be avoided, and which critical success factors can be followed.

Siemens Mobility and HaCon have built several successful intermodal MaaS platforms that cover everything from journey planning to booking and ticketing. Some of these platforms are even more frequently used than Google Maps, thus providing us the unique opportunity to look into the success factors of MaaS.

Based on experience and insights from apps such as Mobilitéit.lu in Luxembourg and other implementations in Europe, Middle East and the United States, this webinar will look at the predominant factors that make MaaS valuable for both users and operators:

  • Passenger Information
    A good MaaS solution is intuitive to use and provides valuable services under consideration of individual preferences and real-time information. Seamless integration of information and transactions like booking, ticketing and payment across modes support the development of a sustainable urban transportation landscape.

  • Customer Communication
    A MaaS app is a communication channel which allows the MaaS platform operator to address customers effectively and provides a powerful tool to drive passenger retention.
  • Partner Management
    A MaaS platform efficiently integrates different transport services and their interfaces. It is scalable and enables a comprehensive management of operations with different business models.

Key learning points

1. How to build engagement and drive up user numbers

2. Recognizing the importance of the platform that MaaS apps are built on; what the user sees in an app is only the tip of the iceberg – what happens beneath the surface is (at least) equally important in delivering high quality solutions

3. Why now is the right time to take the first step towards MaaS and then incrementally grow your solution.

4. The relevance of the business model – and the role of public authorities and open data/API in the context.
