New SUM deliverables released advancing New Shared Mobility

SUM has released a new set of deliverables that provide cities, regions, operators and researchers with practical knowledge to better understand, manage and evaluate shared mobility services.  These outputs draw on insights from the SUM Living Labs and address key aspects of shared mobility, including data integration, fleet management, performance measurement, governance approaches and business models. Together, they offer concrete tools and evidence to support more effective, user-centred and sustainable shared mobility systems across European cities.

Below is an overview of the newly available deliverables.

Deliverable 5.4 – First Version of Validated Business Models

This deliverable presents the first validated set of new shared mobility business models developed and tested within the SUM Living Labs. It examines how services such as carsharing, micromobility and ridehailing can be adapted to local contexts and integrated with public transport systems. Validation is based on pilot activities, stakeholder input and KPI-based assessments, highlighting conditions for success and potential for scaling up across European cities.

Deliverable 5.1 – KPIs and Methodological Framework

This report introduces a comprehensive methodological framework and a consolidated set of KPIs to evaluate new shared mobility business models. It covers key dimensions such as accessibility, sustainability, inclusiveness and efficiency, combining quantitative and qualitative indicators. The framework supports consistent monitoring across cities and provides a solid basis for evidence-based decision-making and policy development.

Deliverable 2.3 – Schedule Integration Tool

This deliverable presents a tool designed to support the integration of shared mobility services with public transport schedules. It focuses on improving coordination between modes to reduce waiting times and enhance the reliability of multimodal trips. The report demonstrates how better schedule integration can improve user experience and strengthen the role of shared mobility within urban transport systems.

Deliverable 2.2 – On-Demand Fleet Management

This report explores approaches to managing on-demand shared mobility fleets in urban environments. It addresses challenges such as fleet rebalancing, service coverage, parking constraints and peak demand. Drawing on experiences from the SUM Living Labs, it identifies data-driven and operational practices that can help cities and operators deliver more efficient, responsive and sustainable services.

Deliverable 2.1 – Integrating Micro-Mobility Availability Information into MaaS for Multi-Modal Trips

This deliverable examines how real-time micro-mobility availability data can be integrated into MaaS platforms to support seamless multimodal journeys. It analyses technical requirements, data standards and governance challenges, while highlighting the importance of interoperability and cooperation between cities and operators. The report provides recommendations to improve trip planning and user experience.

Deliverable 5.3 – Best Practice Analysis

This report analyses best practices for integrating shared mobility services into urban transport systems across Europe. It reviews successful approaches related to governance, business models, data sharing and multimodal integration. The findings highlight transferable lessons and practical insights that can support cities in scaling up shared mobility in line with sustainability and accessibility goals.
