Utilizing capacity across the industry
Ever had to hire a cooperating coach operator to do a booking for you? Of course you have, and we want to make this process easier to do, track and fulfill. With your network of companies you are easily able to see available capacity - which can be borrowed. You can even add your own available resources out to your network, to free someone else's capacity.
Adapt to both the peaks and valleys
Use your network to the fullest for increased operational flexibility. Whether you're navigating peak seasons or handling unexpected bookings, our systems ensure that you can always find the extra capacity you need.
This mean you're equipped to offer consistent, reliable service to your customers, regardless of your current resource limitations.
A trust-based network of coach operators
The solution is more than just a platform; it's a community built on trust and mutual support. By facilitating easy collaboration between coach operators, we're transforming the industry landscape into one, where businesses work together for mutual benefit.
This community-centric approach not only enhances your ability to serve customers, but also strengthens industry relationships, fostering a culture of cooperation and trust.
"Norske Kulturarrangører is a proud partner of Ferdia Sharebus. The concept is brilliant because it solves a logistical challenge for the travellers, while we avoid coordinating and handling payments."
With Ferdia Sharebus, all organizers may easily set up buses for their event or festival.

Yes you can! Traditional coach management systems primarily focus on coach operations. While there's nothing inherently wrong with that approach, winning more contracts requires shifting focus to your customers' needs. Today's customers demand an efficient way to obtain pricing and book a bus online, along with a seamless online experience. For private hires, they expect real-time tracking of vehicle positions for specific trips. Frequent clients desire live monitoring of their entire coach operations to measure performance. With the Ferdia system, you can provide all of these features to your clients. More importantly, leveraging digital solutions can help you secure new contracts and increase revenue
Leading coach operators in Scandinavia have used the system for years. The largest operator has more than 200 coaches, the smallest only have 3. You can read their testimonials in the section Success Stories. The unified experience is that smart technology helps them improve their operations, win more contracts, and improve their customer satisfaction.
No, you don't need to buy or install any other hardware to use our software. The system is cloud-based, like other modern systems. You don't even have to make any installations or integrations to give your customers access to vehicle tracking. It's all solved by tracking for the driver's mobile device. We do this a simular way as Uber and other modern logistic providers.
