The Charlotte Area Transit System (CATS) would like to continue to pursue the path of Transit Asset Management which was commenced in fiscal year 2019. In 2019 we completed our initial Phase I CATS System Transit Asset Management Plan. Charlotte Area Transit System seeks to continue its momentum by the execution of its current Asset Management Plan (AMP). To achieve this goal, CATS Asset Management Team is developing the agency’s processes and decision-making tools to better facilitate the management of assets throughout their lifecycles.

To ensure the successful implementation of the current AMP CATS requires the continued services of aconsultant that is knowledgeable and has experience with an Asset Management Plan, CATS operations, and maintenance departments while utilizing the Industry best practices for asset management.

Obtaining the services of an experienced firm in the implementation of an Asset Management program can better
align spending with the agency’s goals, objectives, and to obtain the greatest return on investment (ROI) with
limited funds.
