Currently, the ministry regulates and commissions four individual government statutory boards: the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS), the Land Transport Authority (LTA), the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) and the Public Transport Council (PTC), which implement the ministry’s policies and tactical directions. MOT also regulates the Air Accident Investigation Bureau of Singapore (AAIB).

The ministry is partitioned into four divisions and is run by a staff of about 70 at all times.
