Elisa Schubert is a Fleet Manager at Brightbill Transportation, a leading provider of school bus services in Pennsylvania. She oversees the Eastern Lebanon County and Cornwall-Lebanon School Districts. After switching to BusPlanner, Elisa has seen remarkable improvements in operational efficiency, simplified routing, and better communication.
Managing transportation for two major school districts in Lebanon County was a challenging task. The team coordinated 64 large bus routes and 45 special-needs vehicles for both districts using outdated software. As operations expanded, driver shortages and tight schedules made the work even harder.
Elisa Schubert says, “Every day you don’t know what you’re walking into, you just hope everybody shows up. We needed a system that could handle changes quickly and keep routes organized, and that’s why we went with BusPlanner.”
BusPlanner simplifies routing for Lebanon County School District, providing instant relief to their complicated operations. Its point-and-click interface made routing efficient, training quick, and existing data was imported seamlessly, allowing for the complete re-routing of districts for maximum productivity.
Elisa Schubert shares, “BusPlanner makes everything simple. What used to take weeks now takes maybe a day and a half; it’s very streamlined.” The team gets to experience the advanced tools and flexibility they need.
“The big thing in BusPlanner is the routing,” Elisa added. “It shows how easy it is to build a route, assign students, and save time compared to other systems.” With BusPlanner, the team streamlined routes without adding buses, even as student needs continued to grow.
Brightbill Transportation’s experience with BusPlanner has been exceptional. Throughout their 10-year journey, everything has run smoothly with a reliable team that keeps operations seamless. Elisa says, “BusPlanner isn’t just a software. They know you by name and treat you like a partner, not a number.”
On the other hand, utilizing the Chipmunk app significantly reduces incoming calls, allowing parents to track buses in real-time and freeing up staff to focus on other priorities. BusPlanner streamlines operations, making buses easier to maintain, and helps the district operate efficiently.

Elisa Schubert says, “With BusPlanner and their expertise, other systems just don’t offer the same support. If I can’t figure something out, they either fix it for me or walk me through it.”
The extraordinary customer care proves that advanced routing software, combined with attentive service, helps large school districts to operate efficiently, cost-effectively, and in a manner that is parent-friendly.
