Airport ground transportation, parking shuttles, hotel shuttles, and rental car facility buses operating 24/7.
Non-emergency medical transportation providers serving Medicaid recipients and healthcare facilities.
Passenger transit carries the most precious cargo - people. Students, seniors, individuals with disabilities, and everyday commuters trust your buses to get them where they need to go safely. Bus CMMS helps you deliver on that trust every single day.
Pre-trip inspections designed for passenger safety - from emergency exits to fire extinguishers, wheelchair lifts to stop arms. Nothing gets missed.
Safety-critical defects trigger instant alerts to maintenance supervisors. Buses with serious issues are flagged out-of-service until repaired.
Every inspection, every repair, every preventive maintenance task is documented with timestamps, photos, and electronic signatures.
Transporting students requires the highest safety standards. Bus CMMS includes specialized features for school bus operations that generic fleet software simply doesn't offer.
Daily inspection verification that stop arms extend fully and crossing gates deploy correctly. Track repair history and replacement schedules.
Ensure child check/child reminder systems are armed and functioning at every inspection. Document system tests with timestamps.
Track all emergency exits - rear door, roof hatches, and emergency windows. Verify alarms, signage, and clear egress paths.
8-light warning system inspection with individual bulb tracking. Amber and red light sequence verification.
Pre-built checklists meet state-specific school bus inspection requirements. Track annual inspections and CHP/state certifications.
Wheelchair lifts, ramps, and securement systems require daily testing and regular maintenance. Bus CMMS ensures your ADA equipment is always ready to serve passengers with disabilities.
Daily cycle testing, weight capacity verification, interlock checks, and annual certification tracking.
Manual and powered ramp deployment testing, surface condition, and handrail inspections.
Wheelchair tie-down inspection, occupant restraint verification, and track system condition.
Bus kneeling system testing for low-floor boarding and passenger accessibility.
Bus CMMS tracks certification expiration dates for all ADA equipment. Automated alerts ensure you never miss a required annual inspection or recertification. Documentation is stored digitally and ready for FTA reviews or ADA compliance audits.
Transit agencies face complex federal requirements - Transit Asset Management (TAM), Public Transportation Agency Safety Plans (PTASP), and National Transit Database (NTD) reporting. Bus CMMS provides the data and documentation you need.
Asset inventory, condition data, and maintenance metrics for annual NTD submissions.
Track asset condition, useful life benchmarks, and state of good repair.
Safety management system data for Public Transportation Agency Safety Plans.
Audit-ready records for State Safety Oversight (SSO) program reviews.
Bus CMMS includes capabilities specifically designed for the unique demands of passenger transit - features you won't find in generic fleet software.
Quick pre-pullout inspections designed for transit operations. Drivers complete safety checks before morning and evening service - keeping buses on schedule while ensuring safety.
Optional midday check-ins for long service days. Operators can report developing issues without taking buses out of service, allowing proactive maintenance planning.
Track your spare bus ratio in real-time. Know exactly how many buses are available versus required for service, helping maintain FTA spare ratio requirements.
Schedule preventive maintenance around service needs. Bus CMMS helps you plan PM windows during low-demand periods to maintain fleet availability.
Transit buses accumulate miles quickly. PM schedules trigger based on actual odometer readings, ensuring high-mileage coaches get timely service.
24-hour transit operations need around-the-clock maintenance visibility. Bus CMMS works across all shifts with role-based access and handoff reporting.
Transit agencies can't afford to miss service. Whether it's a commuter missing their ride to work or a student stranded without transportation, service reliability matters. Bus CMMS helps maximize your fleet availability.

Checklists can be customized to meet your specific state requirements, and all inspections are documented with timestamps and electronic signatures for complete compliance records.
Bus CMMS tracks all ADA accessibility equipment including wheelchair lifts (hydraulic and electric), ramps, wheelchair securement systems, occupant restraints, and kneeling functions. Daily inspection checklists ensure ADA equipment is tested before each service day. The system tracks annual lift certifications, maintenance history, and generates documentation for ADA compliance audits. Alerts notify you before certifications expire.
Yes, Bus CMMS scales from small rural transit agencies with 10-15 buses to large metro systems with hundreds of vehicles. Pricing is based on fleet size, making it affordable for agencies of all sizes. Small agencies particularly benefit from the automated compliance features that reduce administrative burden - getting the same level of documentation and reporting that larger agencies have without the staff overhead.
Most transit agencies are up and running within 2-4 weeks depending on fleet size and complexity. Implementation includes importing your vehicle roster, configuring inspection checklists for your operation type (fixed route, paratransit, school bus, etc.), setting up PM schedules, and training your operators and mechanics. We provide dedicated implementation support to ensure a smooth transition from your existing systems.
