Commenting on the choice, Ms Buchholz mentioned that “Optibus allows us to be more flexible in how we work. We can easily redo existing plans, schedules and rosters and set up new routes a lot faster. More importantly, we can communicate faster and easier with government officials and agencies and show them different scenarios to understand changes they want to implement in services and arrive at decisions that work better for everyone. What’s best that most of these discussions are almost one click away, as opposed to long work cycles”. As to the deployment of the
Optibus transportation management platform, Ms Buchholz added that “the timeframe for the setup and the subsequent production of the first optimization was extremely short. The Optibus team are very passionate, professional and love what they are doing and the results are exceptional, we were able to break the previous stiff existing structures and work more flexibly”.
