ROUTE.
ONE
SCREEN.
Dispatch replaces fragmented spreadsheets and legacy CAD/AVL systems with a unified command center — real-time fleet visibility, automated NTD reporting, and predictive maintenance for bus networks, light rail, and paratransit.
passenger trips managed annually across 47 transit authorities
Your current platform, diagnosed.
Scroll to see each operational pain point replaced — row by row — with the Dispatch capability that eliminates it.
Static route lists refreshed every 5–15 minutes. Operators call dispatch for real-time vehicle location. No unified view across modes.
Live GPS feed for every vehicle — bus, rail, paratransit — on a single map. Sub-10-second refresh. Automatic geofence alerts.
Manual export to spreadsheet. Staff spend 40+ hours per reporting cycle reconciling VRM, VRH, PMT across siloed systems.
Automated NTD data collection — VRM, VRH, UPT, PMT compiled continuously. One-click FTA submission with audit trail.
Reactive work orders triggered by driver reports. No predictive data. Average 3.2 days unplanned downtime per vehicle per year.
IoT sensor telemetry feeds predictive maintenance AI. Work orders auto-generated 14 days before failure probability exceeds 40%.
Block and run schedules built manually in spreadsheets. Optimization takes 3–5 days. Cannot model real-time disruptions.
AI-driven schedule engine models constraints across thousands of vehicles and crew in under 90 minutes. Live rerouting on disruption.
Monthly ridership reports from APC data. No predictive modeling. Planning decisions lag actual demand by 30–60 days.
ML models predict trip demand by corridor, time-of-day, and weather. 14-day ridership forecast with 91% accuracy. Feeds directly into service planning.
