Case Study: Cobb County School District achieves real-time bus tracking, improved safety and payroll accuracy with Actsoft

Cobb County School - Customer Case Study

Cobb County School District, which educates more than 109,000 students in suburban Atlanta and logs about 65,000 bus miles per day, needed a replacement for its 2G push‑to‑talk system and a way to track buses and simplify driver timekeeping. The district selected Actsoft, deploying an Enhanced Push‑to‑Talk solution that runs on 4G LTE alongside Actsoft’s mobile resource management tools for near‑real‑time bus tracking and mobile clock‑in.

Actsoft’s implementation gives dispatchers one‑button access to drivers, GPS visibility across 25,000 designated bus stops, and smartphone clock‑in that integrates with payroll across 114 schools. The district reports improved route planning and fuel utilization from traffic‑pattern data, greater timesheet accuracy and automated payroll, and event/violation records (such as speeding) that enhance student and driver safety.
