Our company name, “Gauge Precision”, means just that. We have the staff and the experience to gauge with exacting precision, the safety, the quality of service and the efficiency of your student transportation program. Most districts spend upwards of 5% of their entire maintenance and operations budget to safely transport students to and from their campuses; so even a small amount of inefficiency will cost the district significant and unnecessary recurring expenses.
Your transportation operations are very complex and ever-changing and because of this, seldom does a district or even a transportation department director know the full picture of their costs, their efficiency, their performance and their safety.
Whether you’re looking for a complete review of your entire student transportation program or something narrower, we have the people and the experience to give you an objective analysis; one that will clearly, visually and statistically show you how your transportation department is performing.
So how do we do our performance analysis? After developing the scope of the project based upon your needs and desired outcomes, we will prepare a detailed engagement letter for your review and approval, and then we’ll assign the best qualified Gauge manager to your project. We will begin gathering information and data electronically from your team, so that when we do perform our first on-site visit, we are fully prepared to engage with minimal disruption to your operations. We will examine data over multiple years to ensure that an accurate pattern exists; so that our summations give you the best picture of potential cost savings available without impacting the quality of service.
The data we gather is only one piece of our precision analysis however. Discussions and interviews with your transportation staff, school staffs, even parents can help us construct a thorough understanding of why things are done the way they are. It’s never a matter of absolute lowest operational cost; it’s about providing satisfactory service to the schools, students and parents, with the utmost safety, all for the lowest possible cost.
An objective consultation will allow you to make decisions based upon facts that contain no subjectivity and no emotional ownership. Some engagements result in very minimal recommendations while others result in significant findings and recommendations that can save you in the tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars annually. Regardless, our clients feel well served because of our detailing of every aspect of one of their biggest investments and operations – Student Transportation.
Our deliverables will be easy to interpret, will be categorized and will include linear data, visual charts and photos, a summary as well as expansive narratives. You will receive draft reports which will be followed by final reports that will be presented in person and available in both print and electronic form.
