This is entirely riffing, I am not an infrastructure investor but have looked at some technology companies that sell into infrastructure owners to help them manage the assets. Just knowing how to put together a good tech stack with a tight budget to improve your asset utilization can add some decent long-term tailwinds. Things like video management software with various security applications, other forms of IoT for monitoring various components of the asset to ensure proper/predictive maintenance, and traveler identification tracking (for things like toll by plate, some infra owners actually sell this anonymized data tobuysidefirms and alternative data aggregators) all offer solid ways to create additional forms of monetization or reduce your costs.

This is really interesting. I am an infra engineer for a SaaS company, primarily focusing on the video space.

Not an exhaustive list, as you might imagine -

i.) Optimising central functions (asset management、采购、信息技术、金融等)通过雇佣更多的experienced / laying off less productive/meaningful staff; ii.) Outsourcing asset management, O&M, route-to-market capabilities (to the extent that it has proven to be challenging/ineffective to run it in-house); iii.) Vendor housekeeping (renegotiation of external contracts under ii.); iv.) Asset housekeeping (commissioning 3rd party assessments and executing on any and all material performance improvement topics); v.) Bolt-ons (to the extent that they are clearly strategic and accretive even in a reasonable downside case and not just "chasing yield")
