How a Flexible TMS Can Solve the Challenges of Hybrid Work

Answer the call for a transit system that meets new needs

Addressing Change

The COVID-19 pandemic has caused significant disruptions to the way we live and work and campuses are no exception. Many campuses have had to adapt to a hybrid work model, with employees and students splitting their time between remote and on-campus work. This shift has created new challenges for campus transportation systems, as traditional commuting patterns have been disrupted and demand for transportation services has become more complex.

Fortunately, there are solutions available to help campuses manage these challenges. One of the most effective and flexible transportation demand management (TDM) systems is TripShot.

How Can TripShot Help?

The need for shuttles, shared transportation, parking management and efficient technology is only growing with new trends in campus transportation. TripShot is a flexible TDM system that can be customized to meet the unique needs of individual campuses. Our platform offers a range of features that can help campuses manage transportation demand more effectively, including:

Real-time Data Tracking

TripShot’s True-Time® technology provides up-to-the-second, GPS-based location data to managers, drivers and riders going beyond real-time data tracking with analytics that allow campuses to monitor transportation demand and usage patterns. TripShot dashboards allow dispatch to easily monitor service levels, set and reach KPIs, understand fleet vehicle capacity, set and review maintenance alerts, track on-time performance (OTP), view GPS playback and more, all in real-time.

Customizable Service and Reporting

TripShot allows campuses to customize transportation services and reports to meet the unique needs of their community and to analyze performance. Campuses can offer shuttle services to remote parking lots, connect to public transit stops or offer intuitive parking for drivers.

Communication tools

TripShot includes communication tools that allow campuses to provide timely updates to users about transportation services and any changes or disruptions. This can help improve the user experience and increase user confidence in alternative transportation options.

Sustainability

TripShot promotes sustainability by reducing the number of single-occupancy vehicles on the road. This allows campuses to reduce the campus carbon footprint and demonstrate a commitment to climate action.

Planning & Analysis

By integrating all campus transportation through a single mobility operating system, admins can access historical data as well. This means that dispatchers and administrators can effortlessly generate TripShot reports and utilize the Planning & Analysis tool's integrated scenario modeling feature to transform both real-time and historical data into practical models for your operations' future.

Flexibility is the Future

The COVID-19 pandemic forced campuses to adapt to new working and commuting patterns. Hybrid work models have created new challenges for campus transportation systems, but flexible TDM systems like TripShot can help. By providing real-time data tracking, customizable services, communication tools and promoting sustainability, TripShot can help campuses manage transportation demand more effectively and provide a better user experience for riders.
