Transit Asset Management (TAM) Pilot Program

The Federal Transit Administration (FTA) is soliciting proposals from public transportation providers, state Departments of Transportation (DOT), and Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPO)-- individually or in partnership--to demonstrate effective Transit Asset Management (TAM) systems and "best practices", which can be replicated to improve transportation asset management at the nation's rail and bus public transportation agencies. Public sector applicants may partner with asset management system suppliers; however the official proposer must be a public agency. The TAM pilot program is intended to address several public transportation asset management challenges identified in previous research by FTA.\1\ FTA contemplates making multiple cooperative agreement awards for TAM pilot projects to varied teams. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
