Reduce Public Transport Costs with
Data-Driven Planning through Cermoni
Lowering costs in public transport does not simply mean cutting services. The real challenge is using resources in line with demand and increasing operational efficiency through data-driven decision-making.

Demand Based Scheduling →
Dead KM and Service Optimization
Real cost savings start with demand-oriented planning. By analyzing ticketing/smart card data, Cermoni identifies passenger flows, origin–destination patterns, and route-level load factors. This analysis reduces unnecessary off-peak trips and minimizes deadhead kilometers (depot–route returns).
Optimize your public transport system based on demand!

Vehicle maintenance and repair costs decrease.
Vehicle & Driver Assignment →
Reduced Overtime and Better Resource Use
Another critical element in planning is balancing vehicle and driver resources. Cermoni optimizes vehicle–driver allocation, shift planning, and breaks in line with demand scenarios.
Optimize vehicle–driver assignments, shifts, and breaks according to demand to use your resources more efficiently.
