To isolate OATS activities, a set of inputs used predominantly in transportation was selected. These inputs are relatively specific to transportation and are vital for the operation of vehicles in given modes of transportation. These TRIs must be used by any industry producing OATS and must comprise a high proportion of the use table for the transportation industry that correspond to each of the four transportation modes. For instance, jet fuel is essential to air transportation. Any industry producing air OATS must consume jet fuel. Similarly, any industry producing truck OATS must consume diesel or gasoline. For the purpose of building the CTEA, 11 TRIs were identified (Table 1) for the four transportation modes, with at least two products for each mode.

| Air | Jet fuel (ENE324114) |
| Air transportation support services (MPS488001) | |
| Rail | Rail transportation support, maintenance and repair services (MPS488003) |
| Parts of railway rolling stock (MPG336502) | |
| Water | Water transportation support, maintenance and repair services (MPS488004) |
| Heavy fuel oils (ENE324115) | |
| Truck | Road transportation support services (MPS488005) |
