Student point to point Transportation, delivered
Ensure stability for students. Simplify complexity for districts. Scale without breaking operations.
Transportation under the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act is fundamentally different from traditional school busing. It’s dynamic, individualized, and legally mandated — requiring fleets to adapt in real time while maintaining consistency for vulnerable students.
Tobi Cloud is purpose-built to manage this complexity, bringing routing, dispatch, compliance, coordination, and billing into one unified platform.
The Challenge with McKinney-Vento Transportation
Traditional busing and routing software systems weren’t built for this level of variability. Tobi is.
Operators and districts must manage:
- Constant student relocations and schedule changes
- Long-distance, cross-district trips
- Individualized routing vs. fixed routes
- Strict compliance and documentation requirements
- Coordination across multiple stakeholders
- High costs tied to inefficient operations
Real-Time Dispatch & Decision Support
Give your dispatchers the tools to operate at scale.
- Centralized view of all trips, drivers, and vehicles
- Live tracking with real-time updates and alerts
- AI-powered recommendations for driver assignments and route changes
- Rapid response to cancellations, no-shows, and same-day requests
Result: Higher dispatcher productivity and fewer operational breakdowns.
