Everyday school buses use the same routes no matter the pick up and traffic situation, this way forces lots of cost to schools and parents, and there is always this fight between drivers and parents if a child misses his bus to school. In a world where you can track your pizza, it doesn’t make sense that you’re not able to track your child’s bus. So here is what REKAB does about it.
Key Challenges
No proper plan for parents and administrations to track school buses
- Sometimes children get on the wrong bus, and parents can’t always check that
- There is always a challenge between parents and bus drivers if a child misses her bus to school
Predetermined routes
- With predetermined routes, there is no option to change pick up or drop off location
- Predetermined routes don’t consider traffic data, so they would be more time and cost consuming
Goals
- Provide live tracking access for parents and school administrations
- Lowering costs through route optimization, and make transportation more affordable
Solutions
- Finding the best routes to avoid traffic congestion with our optimization engine
- Live track for parents to see where the bus is, and if their child is on the bus or not
- Changing pick up/drop off points via app
- Live track for school administrations to see where the buses are and who is on which bus
- Using a QR code to get on the bus and verify that it’s the right one
