Reservationists conduct all general trip transactions 1-7 days in advance with regard to future trips.

Service Monitors conduct all transactions related to trips on day of service, to include ride status (“where’s my ride” inquiries), cancellations, processing of no-shows, and day of service issues, as well as future day ride confirmations and cancellations outside of Reservations Hours. Service Monitors also receive communications from contracted Service Provider service controllers (dispatchers) regarding customer no-shows, service delays, incidents, accidents and other service concerns, and initiate outbound calls to customers regarding day of service issues as well. Customers receive an IVR “reminder call” the evening before their scheduled trips advising them of their pick-up times/windows the following day. (This does not apply to subscription trips).

Depending on the mindset of the contractor, you may not get the same quality of service if they are profit/penalty drive rather than service/customer driven. Denver Lack of contractors to hire sub-operators. Las Vegas Dispatching and Scheduling improvements Los Angeles Challenge with making changes across 6 contractors, technology platforms, etc. New Jersey Vulnerabilities include lack of competition, challenges in obtaining suitable facilities, and limited pool of qualified management talent. Oakland 1. Contractually required high insurance coverage makes looking at alternative delivery options difficult. 2. There can be some finger pointing and points of disagreement between the Broker and Providers, since the Broker does the scheduling. Orange County We could probably reduce the cost for group trips (regional center, adult day healthcare, etc) by separating them from the non-agency afiliated trips, but that might increase the cost per trip for the non-agency afiliated trips since they can be grouped and are typically a lower cost per trip; we are considering a brokerage model.

Austin August 2012, contracted out all service delivery and vehicle maintenance. October 2016, contract with non- dedicated taxi provider came to its natural end. Competitive contract won by an NEMT provider. Broward County Changed Procurement from low bid to RFP best value. Changed model to County owning fleet vs. contractor, county provides fuel vs. contractor. Changes payment from per customer trip to fixed/Variable payment method. Chicago Centralized the trip distribution of trips for the City of Chicago. All trips are batched daily and distributed to all carriers based on percentage of capacity. Dallas With our most recent contract, we changed the reservations/scheduling and dispatch functions from the agency control to being under the contractor. Further, we implemented use of taxis for a share of the trips taken, rather than being completely run with vans. Kansas City The former model was to use one contractor. Now we are using two contractors and considering a third. Las Vegas Formerly scheduling was done in-house and KPI included OTP and complaint ratio. New model moved to include TPSH along with OTP as main performance measurements and scheduling is now contracted out. New York City Increased use of non-dedicated service Oakland In Fy13/14 EBPC converted to a centralized dispatching system at the Broker's office which gave the central dispatchers visibility of the entire fleet at any one time. Previously each provider did their own dispatching and had visibility to only their own vehicles. San Francisco Occurred September 2014. Previously, the paratransit administrative broker was responsible for contracting out all transportation services and could not bid on any transportation service. Now, the company hired to provide for paratransit administrative brokerage also provides some transportation services (different divisions, same organization) while contracting with other service providers as well.

Broward County OTP before change from low bid model was 82%, new model 92.14%, while providing 105,000 more trips in the fiscal year than the year prior. Dallas We keep our service data going back to at least FY2010. Kansas City Not at this time. Las Vegas Cost decreased from FY14 to FY15; $34,607,162; to $33,849,558; Oakland In response to item #79, we are in the process of achieving our goals after moving to centralized dispatch. It was a bigger change than originally understood and required considerable re-training of central and window dispatcher. It also required changes to the S/W parameters which was not immediately understood. At FY13/14 year end , total productivity was 1.75 and trip productivity was 1.50. This dropped to 1.71 and 1.48 by the end of FY15/16. As of January 2017, we are at 1.72 and 1.48. Salt Lake City UTA changed the service model in 2001, UTA schedules all rides and builds all routes for contractors San Francisco Ambulatory SF Access riders showed an uptick in the satisfaction of service according to the most recent customer satisfaction survey. In 2015, 94% percent rated their most recent trip as "excellent" or "good", compared to 91% in 2013.

Survey Responses by Question 237 Q81: What aspects of the new service model or contracting/procurement process do you think is most responsible for this improvement? Response Response Count answered question 8 skipped question 21 Location Response Text Ann Arbor Changing to a dedicated provider model with no independent taxi provider has greatly improved quality of service and satisfaction of riders as well as drivers. Broward County More reliable/standardized fleet of vehicles. Tighter standards qualitative measures, Experience requirements in RFP resulted in more established firms providing the service. Dallas Ability to use taxis for some of the service which assists in help meeting demand and on-time performance. The model itself (paying cost per trip over revenue service hours) has contributed to improvement Kansas City Competition Las Vegas The attention to TPSH and the cost savings received through the procurement process Oakland We believe the concept of centralized dispatch is still a sound one. Between FY13/14 and 15/16, there were challenges that impacted EBPC performance outside of centralized dispatch; some of these were high employee turnover at both the Providers and Broker office. Management also was in flux at 2 of the 3 providers and at the Broker and it was not understood how much the move to centralized dispatch affected system parameters. Significant work has been done to overcome these challenges and we believe productivity will ultimately return to or exceed FY13/14 levels. Salt Lake City UTA scheduling and building all service for the contractor. We control the hours the contractor operates. San Francisco Allowing for one company to provide for both the paratransit administrative brokerage and operations has allowed for more communication and cooperation between the two entities and facilitate solutions that have led to more improved service quality.

New Jersey Control of service quality New York City NYC Transit’s primary objectives for this Contract were to (1) improve service through better reservations, scheduling and dispatch coordination; (2) correct live in-progress problems with Customer Information Agents performing dynamic customer service assistance; (3) save money by increased vehicle productivity and central staffing; (4) improve accountability through the centralization of functions under direct NYCT management; and (5) promote excellent customer service Oakland EBPC's model is one Broker contractor who provides all non-service delivery functions. This includes eligibility; call center; dispatch and scheduling, invoice and reporting; and service provider monitoring. AC and BART consider a single source for customers as well as for managers to obtain information and to resolve issues a priority. The agencies also feels this minimizes finger pointing.

Response Response Count answered question 9 skipped question 20 Location Response Text Columbus Control and Monitoring on-site Dallas We can better hold the single contractor accountable for all functions of the service. This model allows more flexibility. Kansas City We use contractors on weekends and holidays. This is part of the contract with our service provider. Las Vegas Call center functions with the exception of Where'smy ride calls remain with the Agency. Where's my ride calls are handled by the contractor because they employ the dispatch staff whom have direct communication with the drivers. New Jersey While we operate the contact center in-house, it is staffed with a mix of direct employees as well as outsourced agents, who are employed (as contracted staff) through local employment agencies. This gives us the flexibility needed to add and remove agents in much more timely fashion than could be done otherwise. The main challenge is turnover, which is mitigated to some extent by the employment opportunities that arise within our agency for which outsourced agents readily qualify for. New York City Call taking accuracy and performance was improved by hiring a call center contractor to perform this service. Oakland EBPC has one Broker with call center functions assigned as part of their responsibilities. It provides one organization in control. It also offers easy access within departments: for example: call center agents can easily speak to schedulers and dispatchers.

Austin Higher costs (for profit companies), more oversight requirements Las Vegas Cost Savings and increased service monitoring Nashville We still control the trips they receive New Jersey It is how we’ve always operated service. Contracted Service Providers have much more flexibility when it comes to acquiring facilities, personnel and technology – which are all necessary as ridership grows (about 10% per year in our program, and varies per region) and to meet continual needs to expand and develop new features. The “one team, one service” approach in our program has helped us establish long-standing partnerships with contracted Service Providers, who understand our expectations and have become proficient in serving our customer base. Utilizing contracted service also provides us flexibility to bring about changes. New York City Less costly to operate as opposed to performing the service in-house Oakland AC and BART believe contracting service delivery is a more cost-effective model than providing service delivery in-house.

Response Response Count answered question 11 skipped question 18 Location Response Text Los Angeles The variable per trip model incentivizes contractors to be as efficient as possible, hence the high use of non-dedicated taxi use. The agency has maintained a cost per trip under $35 for the last 5 years. New York City Less costly to operate as opposed to performing the service in-house Oakland As noted, the agencies believe a Broker with dedicated service providers is a more cost-effective model. They also feel having all non-service delivery responsibilities in one place is easier to manage and oversee. Orange County The relationship with the contractor and the fact that they provide a turnkey operation has allowed us to try different things, ie., increasing the sue of supplemental service from low demand weekday periods to weekends, testing the relationship between OTP and productivity and what is our tolerance for changing these standards, and the introduction of new technologies associated with the reservation process (IVR, Trapeze Web, etc). Orlando Cost savings on salary and fringe San Francisco More accountability for the contractor providing the brokerage and some transportation services; less fingerpointing. More control over the service quality by the agency
