School bus fleet management
Promote safety, cost-savings and compliance with Geotab’s telematics for student transportation.
Prioritize rider safety and expense reduction
Drive smarter and safer operations with detailed bus insights shared directly to fleet operators and transportation directors. Lower expenditures and risk by monitoring vehicle activity, maintenance schedules and other critical fleet data.
Key features for school bus fleet management
Driver vehicle inspection reports (DVIRs)
Prevent missing or inaccurate logs and save time when completing required vehicle inspections with digital DVIRs. Thorough electronic DVIRs help increase transparency by proactively making transportation directors aware of any vehicle issues.
Preventative maintenance data
Maximize vehicle lifespans and keep your buses on the road with usage reports, maintenance data and diagnostic fault monitoring. Tracking bus maintenance schedules individually helps you optimize costs and extend vehicle longevity.
Electrification insights
Identify prime opportunities in your school bus fleet to go electric with key metrics on fuel consumption, EV battery ranges and CO2 emissions. Work toward meeting sustainability goals and save money by prioritizing sustainable driving practices and fleet electrification preparations.
Discover the additional value of fleet maintenance software for school bus fleets
Telematics data can help support effective fleet maintenance by limiting vehicle downtime and costly expenses. With an exhaustive picture of vehicle status, alerts and maintenance schedules, give the right attention at exactly the right time to each bus in your fleet.
Telematics tools to help protect students and drivers
Driving behavior indicators
Track and report on unsafe driving practices like aggressive braking, excessive accelerations and speeding to promote safer student transportation. Analyze these insights and use them to provide customized coaching to your drivers.
Collision reconstruction capabilities
In the event of a bus collision, study collision reconstruction metrics to provide additional driver coaching and better protect students. Collision data also helps you be better prepared to handle any possible litigation or insurance disputes.
Better data with curve-based logic
Review accurate historical GPS data for optimal bus fleet performance using curve-based logic. This capability uses built-in reasoning to save relevant data points exclusively, so you gain a truly precise understanding of how your buses are moving.
