Transfinder and Zonar to Present on Partnership in School Transportation

San Antonio, Texas – April 22, 2014 – Transfinder Corp. will be giving a presentation this week at Zonar’s Annual Conference, The Zone 2014, in San Antonio, Texas.

Zonar’s conference draws some of the top transportation experts, fleet professionals and suppliers in the industry to its three-day conference to learn tips on how to run a successful fleet and better understand the changing transportation landscape.

Transfinder’s David Sollecito will deliver a presentation titled, “Student Safety and Crisis Prevention.” Sollecito’s talk will focus on how school districts can use mobile and GPS technology to be better prepared for emergencies.

Zonar is one of Transfinder’s partners in providing a comprehensive solution to school districts’ transportation needs. Transfinder provides details on planned vs. actual bus routes, working in tandem with Zonar’s GPS technology.

“Zonar has been a great partner to work with in providing school districts critical GPS information needed to run their fleets efficiently,” said Transfinder President & CEO Antonio Civitella. “Our software allows school districts to plan routes and compare those routes with Zonar’s technology that tracks what’s actually happening on the road.”

Andrew Johnson, Zonar vice president of marketing and sales support, said customers are seeing the benefits of the Transfinder-Zonar partnership.

"Customers using the powerful combination of Transfinder and Zonar are realizing substantial benefits in operational efficiency, fuel savings, route optimization and safety,” Johnson said. “Transfinder's expertise provides a great addition to The Zone with safety information attendees can apply to their fleets immediately."
