I. Background
• 1998 - IT Diagnostic Review performed by Logistics ManagementInstitute (LMI)
• 2000 - Completed analysis and documented the fragile status ofWMATA technology systems and presented IT strategic plan whichoutlined– Many systems were outdated, obsolete and no longer supported by vendors– Systems were not integrated and lacked cross-departmental integration and
communication• 2002 - Board approved $41M for the Information Technology
Renewal Program (ITRP) to modernize the following technology andbusiness systems– Human Resources and Payroll– Bus and Rail Scheduling and Dispatch– Accounting Budget and Capital + Procurement– Maintenance and Materiel Management System
• 2002 - Board authorized system integrator Booz Allen Hamilton andcontract was awarded
• 2002 - Established an ITRP Project organization to manage the ITRPimplementation

• All new systems will be fully integrated• Commercial-Off-The-Shelf (COTS) software purchased – minimal
customizations done only for unique business requirements• Curriculum development, train-the-trainer program, workforce
planning and robust internal communications effort• We did not just buy IT - the new technology is the lever to drive
business changes and the tool to deliver process improvements,productivity and cost savings
• Basic business needs dictate the replacement of these obsoletesystems and WMATA has taken this opportunity to focus onmaximizing the Return On Investment (ROI)

V. Potential Cumulative BusinessProcess Opportunities
• Increase the threshold of Board MEAD approval for procurements• Require employees to use direct deposit or payroll debit cards,
eliminate paper time cards and replace with automated systems• Use of an automated warranty system• Fully integrate training, planning, scheduling and reporting with
competency/skill requirements for all 400+ job classifications• Optimize bus system through greater use of trapeze scheduling
software
Change business processes to optimize software tools…don’tchange software to mimic existing processes
