How to start Corporate Bus Service for Employees

When you have decided to provide staff shuttle service for your employees, it's time to think next.

Broadly, employers may stumble upon various options:

In house Team for operating employee bus:

Employers may decide to open a division in company who would take care of their staff bus service. In-house team would buy their own bus and operate them.

Challenges:
1) Employers have to buy buses which may lead to higher costs for deployment of buses.
2) Employers do not have expertise in operating buses. They have to rely on other parties for maintenance. This may lead to coordination issues and more work to management side.
3) If employer face unsuccessful initiative of staff bus e.g. whether staff bus service is successful for their staff or not, it’s hard to shut them off after few months/years. They have to sell buses at lower price which is again, increase costs.
4) Low quality service: Due to limited expertise and experience, it becomes hard for a team to manage daily operations with utmost safety and hygiene.

Pros:
1) For a long-term plan, it is cost effective for employers.
2) Everything is in house, so no coordination issues with third party operators.

Third party operator for corporate buses:

Employer may choose to collaborate with corporate/staff bus operator for operations and maintenance of buses.

Challenges:
1) Coordination issues with third party operators.
2) Cost may rise if an employer is looking for very long term contracts

Pros:
1) They are expert in their own fields so they are able to provide the best corporate/staff bus service.
2) It turns to be cost effective when it comes to short term projects of few years of service.
3) Employer becomes stress-free as they do not have to worry about maintenance and operations of staff buses.
4) High quality service by corporate bus operator as they are responsible to operate on agreed terms.
