The Operations module within Trapeze’s Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system automates and facilitaties bus operations.
This module comprises five sections: roster, dispatch, driver touchscreens, performance monitoring and timesheet.
Roster:
The rostering tool is a complete system for managing shifts, rosters and award interpretation.
It lets you optimise the final roster to minimise overtime and pay penalties, manage driver shifts and adjust for driver unavailability for leave and fatigue.
Dispatch:
The dispatch tool gives you a complete real-time view of all vital information on one screen.
It gives your dispatch staff complete driver management ability and speeds up the vehicle assignation process that takes into account yard position, workshop requirements and route requirements.
Driver Touchscreens:
Driver touchscreens empower drivers to view rosters, log vehicle defects, volunteer for overtime and view their assigned vehicle and yard position from remote locations.
This saves time and removes the need to consult with counter staff.
Performance Monitoring:
The performance monitoring solution measures staff and company performance and customer satisfaction.
The tool supports the real-time tracking of performance issues and corrective actions, helping you meet your contractual obligations and government regulations.
Timesheet:
Update timesheets with a click of a button as changes happen in dispatch, such as drivers calling in sick or splitting shifts.
This gives you a real-time view of operations and an electronic record that can be communicated to payroll.

“I don’t think there’s anything much better out there. It’s a brilliant system and I’d certainly recommend it to anyone in the bus or tram industry.”

“We approached many local companies, big Indian companies, international companies but we were not very successful. We also had a software house to build our software solution in-house, but all this failed…that is why we decided to go ahead with a technology or a company which is having experience and domain knowledge in the segment.”
