A strategic advisory delivering results across modern mobility systems.
We turn complexity into competitive advantage.
Modalis advises transportation agencies and companies navigating complex government markets.
With over four decades of collective hands-on engineering, planning, and policy experience, we offer practical insight from having served both as agency officials and as company executives, helping clients bridge public‑private perspectives and achieve smarter procurement and project outcomes.
We know how to get things done.
Transportation agencies struggle to modernize.
Technology deployments fail because procurement disconnects from operations. Policy initiatives stall in bureaucratic gridlock. Customer experience improvements get lost in organizational silos.
Meanwhile, companies with better solutions can't break through because they don't understand how agencies actually make decisions.
The result: Outdated systems, failed implementations, and innovation that never scales.
What We Do
Technology Strategy & Implementation
We connect technology decisions to operational outcomes. Wireless networks, surveillance systems, IoT platforms, AI applications, customer information systems—we help you define requirements, evaluate solutions, and deploy systems that actually work.
Organizational Performance & Customer Experience
We align internal operations with external outcomes. Organizational design, governance frameworks, stakeholder coordination, and customer experience strategies that turn modernization plans into ridership growth and operational excellence.
Procurement & Market Entry
We help agencies buy better and companies win smarter. For agencies: outcome-based solicitations that attract innovation and reduce risk. For companies: market entry strategy, procurement navigation, and proposals that win because they address what evaluators actually need.
Regulatory Strategy & Advocacy
We shape the regulatory landscape and navigate government relationships. From developing federal legislation to encouraging local policy adoption, and from grant compliance to mapping regulatory pathways—we know who needs to say yes, how to engage them effectively, and how to move decisions forward.
