Communication Options • GPS – Tracking and Reporting Capabilities • Push to Talk – Nextel network allows for Unlimited PTT service • Traditional Cellular Voice – Easily manage phone numbers that can be called – Lock handset for non-approved calling • Bar Code, RF ID, Biometrics – Student, pre/post trip activities or asset tracking • Panic Button – Alert dispatcher of an incident

Endless Reporting Capabilities • GPS Driver Location • GPS Miles (Kilometers) Report • GPS Miles (Kilometers) Report by State • GPS Speed Report • GPS Speed Exceeded Report • GPS Stop Report • User Activity Report • User Idle Not At Landmark • User Odometer Report • User Task Report • User Task with Locations Report • User Time Sheet Report • User Time Sheet with Landmarks Report • And Many More. . .

Stop Report 3 Minutes +

Exceeded Speed Report

GPS Mileage Report

Automated Alerts • Auto Alerts – Speed – Geo-Fence – Inclusion/Exclusion Zones – Alert parents of soon arriving buses – And More. . . . . • Alerts can be Sent to – Computer/Email – SMS/Text – Mobile Phone – Pager, etc. . . . . . . . .

Return on Investment • Van Buren Schools Savings Projections – Rhonda Lyons-Manning – Transportation Department – 63 total busses – 37 regular needs – 26 special needs – 75 union drivers – 18 aide positions • Savings Scenario – Reduce 63 routes 5 minutes a day, one day a month = 5hrs 15 mins • Over a 10 month period = 52hrs 50 mins • Savings of $16.95/hr (using only drivers) = $881.00/route/driver • Estimated annual savings of $55,528.00 – Savings in Diesel Fuel (calculated at $2.09/gallon) • Bus idling for 1 hr burns 1 gallon of fuel • If saving ½ gallon of fuel/day/bus = Estimated annual savings $11,850.00 – Health Benefit Savings • Using GPS to calculate ACTUAL run times • determine routes that should run under 6 hours • Reduce 2 routes to their actual run times = Estimated annual savings $25,546.00 • Total Estimated Annual Savings - $92,924.00

ROI • Estimated Savings $92,924.00 • Costs Associated with GPS – Monthly cost/bus = apx $23.50 – 63 busses @ $23.50/bus = Apx $1,480.50 – Apx 12 months of service $17,766.00 • Estimated Annual Net Savings $75,158.00 • “It costs School Districts NOT to have the Nextel GPS Solution. . . . “
