CalAmp’s student transportation technology helps school districts verify, monitor, and protect their vital operations.
Whether you're a school administrator, transportation director, bus driver, parent, or guardian, CalAmp’s K-12 solutions can help your district enhance safety, improve service to the community, and drive savings.
That's why some of the largest and most demanding school districts in North America have trusted our solution for over 20 years.
For parents and guardians, peace of mind is knowing exactly when your child's school bus is going to arrive, and when it does, that their child has safely made it on or off the bus.
With our award winning Here Comes the Bus mobile app, Parents and guardians can get real-time notifications when the bus is approaching their stop.
And it allows for direct communication between dispatchers, drivers, and parents. Therefore, everyone is updated instantly in the case of emergencies or delays.
Student Ridership leverages your planned route data to deliver important daily insights for parents, drivers, and administrators.
With a simple scan of a student's RFID tag or barcode, you'll know any time a child gets off at the wrong stop, misses their stop entirely, or even boards the wrong bus — so you and your drivers can act quickly to correct the situation.
Provide an extra layer of student safety and peace of mind for parents by ensuring students are always at the right place at the right time.
Student Ridership data also helps you improve planning decisions by giving insight into bus capacity, opportunities for stop consolidation, and other ridership trends.
School bus safety is a top priority for families, communities and school districts.
The need for visibility on school bus routes is an important part of ensuring the safety of students, drivers, and vehicles.
The CalAmp K-12 application gives fleet managers complete visibility into the location and status of school buses So you can better manage daily operations and keep tabs on fleet activity in real-time.
Live GPS tracking shows the current and historical locations of all your vehicles.
Turn-by-turn route navigation via an on-board tablet keeps buses and students on schedule. Status alerts notify you of important fleet activity.
And intuitive dashboards and reports help you monitor fleet performance against organizational KPIs and identify negative trends that need attention.
A simple integration between our application and your district’s route planning software can help you seamlessly compare a bus’s planned route versus the actual one it followed — so you can easily identify and address any deviations or inefficiencies with your drivers.
Comparative analysis tools help fleet managers to create better, more efficient routes to improve on-time arrivals and reduce driver fatigue.
And if a bus is out of commission, they can quickly identify and reassign its route to another bus — all without causing any delays for students, parents or drivers.
Whether your district has tens, hundreds or thousands of buses, fleet maintenance is always top-of-mind.
Preparing a school bus can be expensive and time consuming, and it puts stress on the rest of your operation to pick up the slack.
A well-maintained school bus fleet minimizes downtime and ensures student safety. The CalAmp K-12 application helps you automate maintenance and avoid unplanned repairs and expenses.
Define regular maintenance schedules by time or miles driven for each vehicle and get alerts when they're due for service.
Get notified whenever a bus triggers a fault code so you can remotely diagnose potential issues before they become bigger problems.
And if there is an issue, two-way communication via electronic logging device lets you alert the driver if they need to pull over or come back for service.
This translates to more efficient maintenance management, which means greater savings for your district and greater safety for drivers and student riders.
When it comes to administering payroll, tracking disparate systems, complex driver work schedules and manual inputs is time consuming and inefficient.
By integrating your district's payroll system with our application, you can streamline payroll and improve driver accountability.
Our Time and Attendance tool allows drivers to clock in at the bus, check their virtual time cards, and receive updates on their routes, all from an easy-to-use touchscreen interface via the ELD.
Driver inputs are easily shared from our application to your payroll system, reducing paperwork and giving you the information needed to accurately — and efficiently — administer payroll.
And fleet managers can use it to improve fleet performance by identifying driving patterns quickly to see which drivers are meeting their goals and which drivers require coaching.
