Case Study: Washoe County School District saves $300K+ in driver overtime and improves parent communication with Tyler Technologies' Versatrans

Tyler Technologies Versatrans Saves Money and Keeps Parents and Administrators in the Loop

Washoe County School District in Reno, NV serves more than 62,000 students across a 6,600‑square‑mile area with a fleet of 726 vehicles. The district relied on manual processes and limited software for planning and parent communication, which created redundant data, slow response times to inquiries, and excessive driver overtime and fuel costs.

The district implemented Tyler Technologies’ Versatrans Routing & Planning and e-Link (with Triptracker added later) in a phased rollout with Tyler’s training and support. The solution streamlined routing and parent communication, improved access to information for staff, and has saved the district more than $300,000 in driver overtime since 2009 while enabling better route planning and faster, web‑based responses to families.
