Solutions · transit
Millions of passengers depend on systems that run 24/7.
There is no off-season for transit infrastructure.
Airports and transit systems run at a scale where one conveyor failure delays thousands and a terminal HVAC outage draws federal complaints. We map dependencies, score risk, and plan spending across bond-funded infrastructure.
Transit infrastructure operates at a different scale
24/7 operations, public accountability, federal oversight, and multi-decade capital horizons. The combination creates a facilities challenge unlike any other sector.
012.8BUS airports processed 2.8 billion passengers last year. Every one expects the systems to work.What it costs
Baggage handling, people movers, terminal HVAC, and jet bridges form interconnected dependency chains. A single point failure ripples through passenger flow for hours.
02480KA large hub terminal may have 480,000+ sq ft of conditioned space per concourseWhat it costs
HVAC at this scale means chilled water plants, air handlers the size of shipping containers, and distribution networks spanning miles of ductwork. All needing simultaneous availability.
03FAARunway electrical systems fall under FAA maintenance requirements with strict compliance windowsWhat it costs
Airfield lighting, signage, and navigational aids must be maintained within regulatory windows. Documentation gaps trigger audit findings that can affect airport certification.
0430yrSpending horizons for transit infrastructure stretch 20 to 30 yearsWhat it costs
Bond-funded programs require facilities teams to project conditions decades into the future. With enough rigor to survive public scrutiny and rating agency review.
How Rivolq helps
airports and transit agencies
Map the full chain from utility entrance to passenger experience
Baggage depends on electrical distribution, which depends on switchgear and utility feeds. We map those chains so one component score surfaces terminal-wide impact.
Score and compare risk across terminals, concourses, and stations
Terminals built in different decades run different systems. We normalize condition data so Terminal A from 1978 compares against Terminal D from 2012.
Build 20-year plans that survive bond counsel and rating agency review
Projected replacement timelines, cost escalation models, and condition forecasts that support bond issuance documentation and investor presentations.
Inspection-ready documentation for airfield and terminal systems
Track FAA-regulated systems alongside standard building infrastructure in one place. Compliance documentation stays current and audit-ready.
Airports and transit questions, answered.
Common questions from terminal and station operations, engineering, and capital programs teams evaluating Rivolq.
How does Rivolq help 24/7 terminals with almost no maintenance window?
Rivolq projects when systems are likely to exit their reliability window, so terminal and station infrastructure work can be planned into the few available windows instead of being forced by an unplanned failure during operations. You act on the systems closest to the edge first.
Can Rivolq support bond and grant capital justification?
Yes. Rivolq turns infrastructure condition into standardized, dollar-quantified capital plans with audit trails — the kind of defensible justification bond measures, FTA/FAA grant programs, and public accountability reviews require.
Does Rivolq replace our existing maintenance system?
It does not have to. Rivolq includes a full CMMS for work orders and preventive maintenance, but it can also import your existing asset register and work history and layer risk scoring and capital planning on top of the system your team already uses.
How long before a transit system sees results?
A scoped pilot typically runs about 90 days from the first facility to a capital plan you can take to leadership or the board. Most agencies start with one terminal, station, or system type to prove the workflow on real assets before expanding.
