Case Study: Stagecoach drives business growth and operational efficiency with Optibus

How Stagecoach drives business growth using Optibus

Stagecoach, Britain’s biggest bus, coach and tram operator, wanted a better way to uncover operational efficiencies and improve the way it bid for new routes. Using Optibus’ transportation management software, the company looked to reduce the time and complexity involved in scheduling, forecasting, and route planning across its large network.

With Optibus, Stagecoach was able to automate and optimize scheduling, model multiple route scenarios, and compare costs and operational obligations more quickly. The result was “massive efficiencies” in trial regions like West Scotland and Cambridge, better support for new route tenders, and a faster, more effective bidding process that Stagecoach said was “life changing.”
