It embodies the idea of a single mobility service enabling seamless travel and integrating different modes of public and private transport within a single interface. The concept applies to both urban and rural areas, in which the availability of and demand for transport services can be very different. ## END-TO-END SUPPORT, FROM THE DATA FORMAT TO MONETISATION Our goals: - To guide you through the definition of a MaaS project (business model, governance, partnership strategy, scope of action, levers for behavioural change, etc.) according to your mobility policies; - To provide technical expertise during the design and rollout of the MaaS tool while prioritising open, standard solutions; - To inform future decision-making based on the data collected by the tool, through a better understanding of demand and mobility. **With a network of 50 specialist MaaS consultants in our various subsidiaries (United Kingdom, Australia, Brazil, Southeast Asia, Middle East, United States, France), we can draw on our global experience once we have analysed your specific needs and local challenges.** ![systra_maas_couv-en](https://www.systra.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/09/systra_maas_couv-en.png) ### 󠀁**MAAS AS VIEWED BY SYSTRA AND USBEK & RICA**󠁿 With projects implemented around the world, SYSTRA is framing the debate around the key issues raised by MaaS, avoiding the temptation to reduce it to its technological dimension. How can MaaS support the sustainable mobility policies of all local authorities? Is pricing a solution for controlling congestion? How can MaaS coexist alongside the car?

Since 2020, as part of Ponts Formations Conseils (France), SYSTRA has co-hosted a training session with Christophe Wolf (Mulhouse Alsace Agglomération) on “Getting to grips with digital technology in mobility”, to give local authorities more insight into the digital transformation of mobility. This transition is revolutionising the sector, requiring all stakeholders to develop new skills. ![illustration-maas-qeto](https://www.systra.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/illustration-maas-qeto.jpg) ## WHEN DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY SUPPORTS DECISION-MAKING In 2019, SYSTRA launched QETO, its app development, data processing and data science studio. The aim was to meet new customer demand for monetising data, to explore new digital and data competencies, and to support our consultancy and planning services. Our studio combines the Group’s business expertise with UX/UI design, developers and product owners.
