Audit Finds MTA Lags on Procurement Consolidation Promised in 2019 Transformation Plan

The MTA faces continued pressure to implement its capital programs and savings initiatives, which would benefit from furthering its stated goals of transforming its procurement process.
More savings may be possible if it does more to coordinate purchasing among its agencies instead of the status quo of having them procure their needs independently.
