Driver App Engage
Enhance control and agility through streamlined driver communication and coordination
CONTACT USEmpower and motivate drivers through improved communication
Making the depot allocator’s life easier, whilst improving the level of control and accuracy of information, is something we take very seriously. Our driver app Engage allows drivers, over the company intranet/internet or mobile app, to view their upcoming work, rota information, holidays and hours worked as well as request exchanges and register availability for overtime. This utility releases allocation staff from questions and administration of information, leaving them free to concentrate on getting drivers on buses.
The driver app can be installed on smartphones, providing drivers with a secure and individual experience to access information about their work, request swaps and receive important updates via push notifications. The driver no longer needs to be at the depot to see what is going on at work, or receive an urgent message or notification.
The app overcomes the limitations of traditional noticeboard systems by granting team members rapid access to their rotas and duties, empowering them with efficient time management capabilities.
Instant notifications serve as a proactive tool, swiftly communicating any adjustments to plans, enabling teams to adapt seamlessly to changing circumstances. By staying informed in real-time, team members can efficiently reorganise their tasks, minimise delays, and maintain service continuity, ultimately enhancing customer satisfaction. This proactive approach not only fosters a culture of flexibility and adaptability but also significantly reduces the potential for disruptions, ensuring smooth operations and maximising productivity.
The app empowers drivers by allowing them to effortlessly request holidays or duty changes, organise shift swaps, and volunteer for overtime. This not only enhances flexibility and work-life balance for employees but also streamlines administrative processes for the business, ensuring optimal staffing levels and operational efficiency.
The app facilitates enhanced communication and involving drivers in the allocation of their work, which not only cultivates heightened morale and job satisfaction but also fosters a deeper sense of ownership and commitment among them. This proactive approach yields tangible benefits for staff retention, as it underscores their value and engagement within the organisation. Operators gain through reduced turnover rates, ensuring operational stability and bolstering customer satisfaction levels.
Streamlining administrative tasks through the automation of requests and enquiries not only alleviates the admin burden on the control room but also empowers teams with faster, more efficient responses to their needs, leading to increased satisfaction and productivity. This optimised approach results in notable reductions in both time and costs, enhancing overall operations and service quality.
