Abstract
An information processing apparatus manages the operation of an alternative vehicle when a vehicle recovers from a failure. The information processing apparatus includes a controller. The controller is configured to determine, when it is judged that the vehicle is not operational due to failure of the vehicle, to introduce an alternative vehicle to replace the vehicle, and when recovery information indicating that the vehicle has recovered from the failure is acquired, maintain the determination to introduce the alternative vehicle or cancel the introduction of the alternative vehicle and redetermine the recovered vehicle as being operational.
