Issue
ISSUE
Metro is embarking on a significant growth in its real estate holdings as a result of capital infrastructure development outlined in Measure M. The Real Estate Department estimates that over 3,000 acquisitions and relocations are to be completed in the next ten years. Currently there is no electronic record management system or formal workflow for the acquisition of Metro property or planning of future real property acquisitions. In order to handle and improve process efficiencies, the department requires a new Real Estate Management System (REMS) to act as the principal work management solution.
