HOW IT WORKS

School officials enter a transportation request, including date/start time, destination, and any intermediate stops

The field trip request also allows the official to:

  • request a driver
  • select a map source for detailed driving directions
  • submit supporting lesson plans
  • provide trip cost estimates for planned versus actual calculations

The approval manager can approve or reject the request submission with the click of a button. The requester is notified of request status changes via email.

If approved, the Field Trip Planning Software notifies the transportation team of driver(s) and vehicle(s) requirements based on trip request details (is a wheelchair ramp required, does the driver need special needs training).

Once the trip is complete, the driver enters the trip distance traveled and duration. The Field Trip Planning software calculates and submits expenses to the budget holder for automated trip billing, invoicing and driver payroll processing.

School officials can access historical data to better plan, forecast and budget future field trips.
