ideas about how the product might be even better, they are
very responsive. Every time we turn around, this system is
helping us do our job better, and that’s why we’re here.” |

| Students Transported Each Day: |
8,400 |
| Bottom Line |
“We’ve definitely used the system to reduce idle times, monitoring once a week and making the drivers aware of excessive idling. I cannot imagine life without it right now.
Once a school district implements this system, it is such a valuable tool, they won’t ever want to be without it. I think it
will be on every school bus out there someday. It really is
an amazing tool.” |

| Bottom Line |
“A great return on investment. Having Time & Attendance and Synovia Core GPS tracking is like having a cell phone.
I didn’t think I needed one when I first got one. But once I had it, I wondered what I ever did without it.” |

Colonel John Layton
Lieutenant Nick Grandy
| Bottom Line |
“The safety factor and the fact that this can save the life of a police officer is paramount. The service that we’ve been given, the availability to them and the way they have worked with us
to get this in place is second to none. The price was right and the product itself—I remember the first time Synovia came in and gave us a demonstration. It knocked my socks off.”
