Cost modelling & strategies

Woman waiting for train

At Steer, we help organisations develop robust cost models and strategic financial plans to optimise the planning, delivery, and user experience of transport, infrastructure, and urban development projects. Our deep understanding of transport delivery, transport businesses, and commercial incentives allows us to combine data analysis, financial forecasting, and scenario modelling to improve efficiency and ensure projects align with strategic goals. 

We forecast operational costs and revenue, identify funding options, and advise procurement agencies — including government departments — on selecting operators and developers that deliver value for money and long-term performance. 

Our expertise spans operational planning, lifecycle cost modelling, and efficiency strategies, helping clients balance affordability with quality and resilience. 

Whether optimising public transport services, infrastructure operations, or customer experience enhancements, our insights help organisations reduce risk, improve efficiency, and enhance service quality and accessibility, ensuring projects are both financially sustainable and responsive to user needs.
