How to start Corporate Bus Service for Employees
How to start Corporate Bus Service for Employees When you have decided to provide staff shuttle service for your employees, it’s time to think next. Broadly, employers may stumble upon various options: In house Team for operating employee bus: Employers may decide to open a division in company who would take care of their staff bus service. In-house team would buy their own bus and operate them. Challenges:1) Employers have to buy buses which may lead to higher costs for deployment of buses.2) Employers do not have expertise in operating buses. They have to rely on other parties for maintenance. This may lead to coordination issues and more work to management side.3) If employer face unsuccessful initiative of staff bus e.g. whether staff bus service is successful for their staff or not, it’s hard to shut them off after few months/years. They have to sell buses at lower price which is again, increase costs.4) Low quality service: Due to limited expertise and experience, it becomes hard for a team to manage daily operations with utmost safety and hygiene. Pros:1) For a long-term plan, it is cost effective for employers.2) Everything is in house, so no coordination issues with third party operators. Third party operator for corporate buses: Employer may choose to collaborate with corporate/staff bus operator for operations and maintenance of buses. Challenges:1) Coordination issues with third party operators.2) Cost may rise if an employer is looking for very long term contracts Pros:1) They are expert in their own fields so they are able to provide the best corporate/staff bus service.2) It turns to be cost effective when it comes to short term projects of few years of service.3) Employer becomes stress-free as they do not have to worry about maintenance and operations of staff buses.4) High quality service by corporate bus operator as they are responsible to operate on agreed terms. For every employer, it is challenging to decide if an employer is keen to provide the best corporate bus service to its employees, it is their choice which option to choose from. If employer decides to choose third party operator, certain parameters needs to be discussed with them.

How to Make India Electric Bus Friendly country?
How to Make India Electric Bus Friendly country? (A) Infrastructure developmentCharging station:- Charging (AC Fast charging) stations should be set up by the government covering the whole country and DC Superfast chargers should be in major metros (Tire I and II cities). Electronic roads:-On average the range of diesel bus is about 500 km and a CNG bus is about 300 km. Comparing it with the average range of an Electric Bus in India is about 250 km. This is the greatest limitation. Instead, promotion of Hybrid Buses should be done which solves the purpose of frequent short electric drive and use of gasoline for an infrequent long-distance drive. Use of renewable source of energy to achieve the ultimate objective:-When we are talking about Electric Bus and go green, we should not forget about the ultimate origin of electricity. Thus, promotion of renewable solar electricity should be promoted hand in hand. 5G:All these EV comes with the latest M2M (Machine to Machine) embedded 5G ready sim. Thus, focus on development of a network to get the best out of technology. (B) Cost of the vehiclePromote localised production of buses:-The government should welcome major automobile companies to establish local production facilities to lower the cost of buses. Attract ancillary industries (Lithium-ion cells, photovoltaic cells etc.):-Ancillary industries which produce components should also be passed benefit to reduce cost of bus. Make policies which are really transparent:-Transparent policies should not only remain in papers. To expect positive results those policies should be practically transparent. Promote integration of the photovoltaic system in vehicle:-To increase the range of Electric Bus use of photovoltaic cells should be used on bus which would convert solar energy into electric energy. Decrease cost of bus:-Average running of city bus per route is maximum 100 km. New buses should be developed having battery swapping facility, thus, by decreasing the range of bus ultimately reduces the battery cost which is one major component of Electric Bus so that bus becomes more affordable. By doing this total cost of bus becomes half for which is available right now. (C) Government incentive schemeGST Rates:-Though EVs GST rate has been reduced from 12% to 5% still GST on Hybrid Vehicles is 28% and 15% cess which is too high. It should be lower. State government local road and vehicle tax (RTO):-Very few state governments are EV pro. Every state government should have a uniform policy of local RTO and road/vehicle tax all over the country and caution should be made to levy lower tax rates as already these buses are expensive. Subsidies:-Subsidies should be given one who purchases the Electric Bus. (D) Financial assistanceInvestment in start-ups:-Government should encourage start-ups for development of technology. Easy loans process with lower interest rates:-Procedure of loans should be made easy and interest rates attracted to Electric Bus should be lower as compared to other buses (ICE). Increase technical knowledgeEducation among public:-There are many instances where people are not knowing many government schemes which are already implemented due to lack of communication. These benefits and promotional schemes should be communicated. Skill development programmes for technicians: –Training should be provided to mechanics so that there will be no bottleneck at the time of need. (E) Increase technical knowledgeEducation among public:-There are many instances where people are not knowing many government schemes which are already implemented due to lack of communication. These benefits and promotional schemes should be communicated. Skill development programmes for technicians:-Training should be provided to mechanics so that there will be no bottleneck at the time of need. (F) Special consideration for public modal transportUse of Electric Bus as mandatory public transport (inter-city): –All state transport commercial vehicles should be Electric Bus. Steps should be taken to convert all government official’s cars in EV too. Attention to fleet owners providing taxi services:-Fleet owners like Aadinath Bulk Private Ltd etc. should be encouraged to convert all vehicles into EV. (G) Attract bus transport companies by offering added advantagesFree parking plots: –Parking is one of the big issue in India. To promote EV proposal of free parking exclusively for EV should be setup. Free charging:-Some charging points of AC Fast charging should be set up and be free to use for EV owners. Charges form DC Superfast Charging should be affordable. Lower toll-taxes for EV compared to conventional vehicles:-A lower amount of toll-taxes should be charged in Electric Bus so intra-city transport using EV can be encouraged. Trip planning feature:-A map should be developed which depicts the real-time free or available charging station for vehicle and finds charging stations which would come on the planned route. To ensure the success of Electric Bus in mainstream public transport facility, the best way is to hire the transport agencies who are already handling city and corporate bus operations. With the help of their operations expertise it would be effortless task as they already have the required infrastructure, knowledge about market and relations with the clients. We at Aadinath Bulk Private Limited is a technology driven company which undertakes city and corporate bus operations and maintenance for over 12 years. We are disrupting sector with a unique blend of proven operating model and cutting-edge technology. With our passion and hard work, we are achieving more than 99% on time and on-road performance for our daily operations.

Factors affecting adaptation of Electric Bus
Factors affecting adaptation of Electric Bus (A) Internal Factors (Relating to the BUS) 1. Purchase Price of Vehicle and Battery Cost:Electric Bus tends to be more expensive than its comparable ICE (Internal Combustion Engine) that typically runs in diesel, or natural gas which is most often CNG. Cost of Electric Bus is approx. two times as compared to ICE or HEV. The obvious purchase decision will be ICE which is more attractive in every comparable feature against EV which has its USP of being all-electric. Thus, this trade-off or gap has to be reduced to promote Electric Bus more practically. 2. Driving Range:On average the range of diesel bus is about 500 km and a CNG bus is about 300 km. Comparing it with the average range of an Electric Bus in India is about 250 km. This is the greatest limitation. Instead, promotion of Hybrid Buses should be done which solves the purpose of frequent short electric drive and use of gasoline for an infrequent long-distance drive. 3. Charging Time:ICE engines bus requires maximum of ten minutes for refuelling. On the contrary, Electric Bus takes a lot of time. Charging time also depends upon type charger used. DC super-fast charger is very efficient in terms of charging but has a high cost. AC fast chargers require to get erected and takes more time than DC super-fast charger. Third type of charging is a portable charger which can be plugged in a 15A socket which takes highest time for charging Important: Time taken to charge depends on – SOC (State of Charge of battery) and Ambient Temperature (Surrounding Temperature) 4. After-Sales and Maintenance:Acute shortage of mechanical or technical expertise for service or maintenance in case of breakdown of Electric Bus. There are very fewer technicians who can operate Electric Bus due to lack of training and no prior experience to deal with. Thus, consideration of after-sales and maintenance is given very high weight in automobile sector. Approx. maintenance cost of Electric Bus is 30% lower than that of a bus running on diesel or CNG engine. Components to be replaced during periodic maintenance: AC Filter, battery Coolant, brake fluid and transmission fluid require to be replaced during periodic maintenance. Parts that undergo wear and tear like wiper blades, brake shoes, etc. will have to be changed as per usage. (B) External Factors 1. Infrastructure (Roads, Meeting potential demand for electricity, charging points):Infrastructure is the basic prerequisite to make Electric Bus model successful. Number of infrastructural modifications to make it Electric Bus friendly is in need. Establishment of charging points in large quantity covering all parts of the country. Development of meeting the demand of electricity of future demand should be kept in mind by the government. Promotion of renewable or atomic power source should be encouraged rather than thermal electricity to achieve the eventual goal of green environment. 2. Government Incentives:The FAME (Faster Adoption and Manufacture of (Hybrid and) Electric Vehicles) was launched by the Ministry of Heavy Industries and Public Enterprises in 2015 to incentivize the production and promotion of eco-friendly vehicles including electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles Two phases of the scheme Phase I: started in 2015 and was completed on March 31st, 2019 Phase II: started from April 1st, 2019, will be completed by March 31st, 2022 Many more initiatives should be taken by government to promote Electric Bus. 3. Fuel Prices (Alternative fuels v/s Electricity):Price of diesel is approx. Rs. 73, CNG price is approx. Rs. 57/kg. Against which the piece per unit of electricity is approx. Rs. 5/unit. More rise in fuel prices will help to promote Electric Bus culture. 4. Consumer Awareness (Making understand REAL advantage):Every step of the promotion will be in vain if the target audience will not get the message. Government of India unveiled National Electric Mobility Mission Plan (NEMMP) 2020 to accelerate the growth of the electric and hybrid components of the automotive sector. It focuses primarily on fast-tracking the manufacturing and introduction of EVs in India. Many more initiatives should be taken by government to promote Electric Bus. From above mentioned various factors, internal factors are one which can be achieved by OEM’s (Original Equipment Manufacturers) like Tata Motors, Ashok Leyland, Olectra Greentech Ltd (International Partner- BYD Auto Industry), Deccan Auto Limited. These are the companies who are majorly investing in innovation and manufacturing of environment friendly electric buses. Most crucial task of adapting the use electric bus as a public transport is under the hand of Government’s support. Indian government has introduced The National Electric Mobility Mission Plan (NEMMP) 2020 provides the vision and the roadmap for the faster adoption of electric vehicles and their manufacturing in the country and as part of the NEMMP 2020, the Department of Heavy Industry formulated a Scheme viz. Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of (Hybrid &) Electric Vehicles in India (FAME India) Scheme in the year 2015 to promote manufacturing of electric and hybrid vehicle technology. After completion of Phase I in March 2019, FAME-II is implemented to promote one slow-charging unit for every electric bus and one fast-charging station for 10 electric buses, interlinking of renewable energy sources with charging infrastructure and some incentives on procurement of electric bus. Now, the public transport operators are getting upgraded from the conventional practices and started adapting modern technologies in operations. They also have identified the potential benefits which an electric bus would contribute in smooth, safe, silent and environment friendly ride to citizens. But dominant aspect which limits the bus operators considerable amount of initial investment for acquisition for the vehicle. Out of many bus operators in India, we Aadinath Bulk Private Limited also have willingness and potential to adapt green transportation vehicle but need a kickstart for purchasing fleet through more transparent and proactive policies from the government as well.

Why a company should think about Employee Shuttle Service?
Why a company should think about Employee Shuttle Service? As an employer, you ensure for your employees to become more productive. You organize events. You throw parties. You plan Hangouts.

The best solution an employer can think of is: To start Employee Bus Service. The decision to start Staff Bus Service is not easy either if we do cost-benefit analysis. Let’s look at the reasons why it is a perfect time to think of Staff Bus Service: Attracting New Talent: Every company’s biggest asset is their employees. If workplace is far from city, it becomes impossible to seek good talent. Employee bus makes it easy and convenient to travel to and from work. It becomes an attractive incentive for employees. Also, this hassle free service can come to rescue for many employers to fight with staff crunch, and in addition, ensures happy employer with a happy employee. Reducing Stress Level: Transport to workplace, via by car or public transport, consumes lots of time and energy. This stress adds to work stress and reduces employee’s productivity. Not to mention, Reduced productivity is company’s biggest loss. Study says, Employee shuttle service increases happiness level and reduces stress. It gives extra time from employees from driving a car/ use public transport which helps fighting stress in a better way. Improving Brand Image: Brands do take care for their employees, and so should you! Company is considered good if they do care for their staff’s time and money, both. Brands are not made overnight and this small efforts make a lot of difference. Staff Bus Service can be a good start in that! Better Work Culture and Improved Corporate Relations: Great team makes great products and services. Companies make every little effort ranging from team activities to corporate parties, to get employees build better relations. Some extra time in bus may help them to talk and share things other than work. Better communication leads to better teams. Better teams to better work. Better work to everything better !! Environment Friendly Operations: Environment is degrading and awareness is no less. However, day by day, private vehicles are increasing. If not controlled, we all will have to wear masks to save our lives. Also,India is at the top of the list of nations expected to be worst hit by the adverse effects of climate change. Its dense coastal populations could be hit hard by rising sea levels, while changing weather patterns may negatively impact agricultural and food security. Employee bus is definitely not going to prevent pollution completely. However, can be great start towards sensible and responsible human behavior! Minimal cost, greater corporate benefits: Starting a employee shuttle service may not cost millions of bucks, however, a small cost to pay for increased employee productivity.
