What happens when school transportation systems don't talk to each other? Fragmented data, duplicate work, and operational inefficiencies can make an already challenging job even harder.

In this conversation, Stephanie Wilcoxson and Jerry Ortega from Zum discuss how the company is using integrated technology to address some of the industry's biggest challenges, from driver shortages and disconnected systems to routing efficiency and on-time performance.

They also share examples of results Zum says its district partners have achieved, including an 86% reduction in transportation-related absences in Kansas City and more than $3.5 million in annual routing savings in San Francisco.
