EQUITY PLATFORM
The Mobile Application Consolidation response is incorporating Metro’s Equity Platform by supporting the pillar: Listen and Learn. In outlining the next phase of in-depth customer research, the working group will strive to understand who, demographically and socio-economically, are current users of existing Metro mobile applications; how different users of varying abilities currently do and would like to interact with Metro mobile applications; and identify ways in which Metro can better address and solve for disparities with riders without Smartphones. In addition to studying current users of Metro’s mobile apps, the Working Group will also study non-users of existing applications to understand barriers and ways in which mobile app access and usage can be increased through this effort. The working group is committed to listening and learning from all customers in its next phase through coordination with Metro’s special interest councils and segmented user experience testing, eventually incorporating those findings into its final proposed solution.
