TTC Enterprise Asset Management 

These updates about the TTC's Enterprise Asset Management program will be sent out every second month.   

Enterprise Asset Management (EAM) review

Why are we changing the way we manage assets?

The Enterprise Asset Management program will replace several different asset management systems with streamlined tools and processes. MAXIMO has been selected as the tool the TTC will use to track its assets. Employees on the I&E team will use the software to effectively track the condition of bridges, tracks, signals and a wide variety of other assets. 

The Enterprise Asset Management system will meet regulatory requirements and allow the TTC to make data-driven investment decisions that improve the safety and reliability of its assets. This will improve transit service overall and strengthen the TTC’s relationships with government, regulators, and other stakeholders. 

The TTC is committed to modernizing how we operate in order to provide exceptional service to customers. The Enterprise Asset Management system will complement other systems and tools that are in the process of being upgraded.

Coming up

Track & Structure and SEC sections next for rollout of MAXIMO Linear Asset Management

MAXIMO Linear Asset Management was fully rolled out to the Subway Track Department in May, and the next groups to receive the upgrade will be Track & Structure and the Signals/Electrical/Communications (SEC) sections. With more groups using MAXIMO, asset information will be better integrated, and groups within Track & Structure will be able to work more collaboratively.  

The complete solution for Track & Structure and SEC asset management will support:

• Asset registries
• Maintenance work order management
• KPI tracking that enables TTC management to make informed decisions

Happening now 

Signaling and Structure assessments are underway

The EAM Team is currently assessing the Signals and Structures' business processes, requirements, gaps and more in order to migrate signals to the consolidated MAXIMO asset management solution. 

Meet the Asset Management Team

A new governance structure has been implemented to support the Enterprise Asset Management transformation, business processes, and systems to accelerate the build of the TTC’s sustainable Asset Management and Investment Plan (AMIP).

In case you missed it

Asset management training begins for Infrastructure and Engineering Group

From December 2021 to May 2022, over 120 employees from the Track division of Infrastructure and Engineering were trained to use MAXIMO. Special thanks to Seyed Mohammadian Masooly, Al Reilly, Tauqeer Qurashi and Lyndon Badenoch for training the Track Team.  

Several employees were also trained as subject matter experts so that they too can help others learn how to use MAXIMO. Training has been a real team effort; thank you to the forepersons and supervisors who have played a critical role in advancing this training. 

First TTC employees complete asset management course

We are proud of the fifteen Vehicle Group and Infrastructure and Engineering staff who completed the Jacobs Infrastructure Asset Management Training Course this past April. Two participants are pictured above: Emma Petch (left) and Irene Pan (right).

The training is designed to help develop "asset management champions" as the TTC pursues a broader asset management policy.

Congratulations all on achieving this milestone!
