Dallas County Schools Selects Fleet Management Software

AssetWorks, provider of Fleet Management Software and Automated Fuel Management Systems, today announced that it has signed a Software as a Service (SaaS) contract to implement FleetFocus at Dallas County Schools in Dallas, TX.

Dallas County Schools (DCS) is the fifth largest Pupil Transportation Organization in the country. With over 1,700 buses, twelve (12) service centers and a transportation department staff in excess of 1,800 employees, DCS transports approximately 64,000 children to and from school safely each day.

DCS selected FleetFocus through a competitive bid process. With a total fleet of approximately 1,800 buses and support vehicles, Dallas County Schools sought a comprehensive fleet management software solution to replace an in-house developed inventory management and work order system that was not meeting the needs of the organization. Dallas County Schools also needed a system that could integrate with existing financial management systems and operations systems used for accounting, route management and telematics.

AssetWorks will host the application from their Data Center in Wayne, PA, and DCS will access FleetFocus over the internet allowing staff to access the application at anytime from anywhere. DCS will also take advantage many of FleetFocus’ features, including dashboard data that illustrate key performance indicators (KPIs) in graphical format and the built-in Ad Hoc Query tool which allows any user to report on any data within the database from a web browser.
