Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) – Investment Master Plan, Dubai

Project

  • The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) manages and operates a diverse range of assets across Dubai.
  • Faithful+Gould was commissioned to analyse the RTA organisation in order to understand the business structure and asset management strategy.
  • Following the comprehensive review, Faithful+Gould completed a 360 degree review of the asset data and reported back to RTA a detailed assessment of core / non core assets and revenue / non revenue classification generating assets.
  • From the classified asset data Faithful+Gould calculated a 25 year life cycle replacement. This will assist the RTA in their long term financial planning.

The Approach

  • To work with the client and third parties to gain an in-depth knowledge of the business and the approach taken towards asset management.

The Challenge

  • To assimilate a significant amount of asset information spread across all areas of the business. To carry out a detailed interrogation of the data in order to compile sections of the investment master plan.

Outcome

The successful delivery of a comprehensive report that assisted the client in their strategic asset planning. The report included:

  • Identification of the life cycle replacement costs over a 30 year period;
  • Provision of a detailed gap analysis to clarify where asset information is incomplete;
  • Classification of core and non core assets;
  • Classification of revenue generating assets;
  • Identification of opportunities for increased revenue from the asset base;
  • Identification of future investment opportunities;
  • Identification of strategies to maximise profits from revenue generating opportunities.
