Written Reply to Parliamentary Question on Estimated Overall Cost and Timeframe to Move into ERP 2.0 System Era
07 Nov 2023In Parliament
Mr Zhulkarnain Abdul Rahim asked the Minister for Transport with regard to the ERP 2.0 system
a. what is the estimated cost to (i) dismantle all the present In-Vehicle Unit (ii) retrofit the new on-board units and (iii) maintain the new unit in all vehicles;
b. whether the Ministry has conducted any cost-benefit analysis relative to the current system; and
c. what is the Ministry’s estimated timeframe for the completion of rollout of the new system.
Reply by Acting Minister for Transport Chee Hong Tat:
1. The Land Transport Authority (LTA) awarded the ERP 2.0 project to the consortium formed by NCS Pte Ltd and MHI Engine System Asia Pte Ltd at a cost of S$556 million in 2016. As the project is still ongoing, details of the project costs will only be finalised upon completion.
2. LTA had assessed that it is less costly to replace the current ERP system with ERP 2.0 based on Global Navigation Satellite System technology, compared to extending the existing system. The On-Board Unit installation exercise is expected to be completed by end 2025.
