Orcoda Contributes to ACTA’s case study on technology in community transport for the Commonwealth Home Support Programme pricing pilot
Orcoda is proud to announce that we have been invited by the Australian Community Transport Association (ACTA) to contribute to their case study for the Federal Department of Health and Aged Care. This paper will explore the role technology plays in improving the efficiency and effectiveness of Community Transport services across Australia.
Does Technology improve service provision?
As industry leaders in transport technology, Orcoda’s Community Transport software has a proven track record in helping providers increase operational efficiency. Our solution has enabled providers to deliver 25% more trips with the same number of vehicles and drivers. This is a key factor in addressing the growing demand for Community Transport services as Australia’s ageing population continues to rise.
The ACTA Pilot’s case study will highlight how technology, like Orcoda’s platform, helps solve the two biggest challenges for Community Transport Providers—moving more people while being cost-effective. Aggregating trips is crucial to unlocking productivity and maximising resource use. Our technology’s results speak for themselves, with partners such as TransitCare and Burnie Brae seeing significant growth in trips delivered with the same or fewer vehicles. Do more with less is our moto!
By integrating technology into the planning, scheduling, and coordination of vehicles, drivers, and customers, Community Transport can meet increasing demand more sustainably. Our contributions to this paper will underscore the vital role technology plays in the future of Community Transport, making it safer, more efficient, and better equipped to serve communities.
