TRC Partners With Carahsoft to Deliver On-Demand Transit Solutions to the Public Sector

Partnership Makes TRC’s ODT Solutions Now Available to U.S. Federal, State and Local Government Agencies

NEW YORK – January 10, 2025 — The Routing Company (“TRC”), a global on-demand vehicle routing and management platform, today announced a partnership with Carahsoft Technology Corp., The Trusted Government It Solutions Provider®. Carahsoft will serve as TRC’s Master Government Aggregator®, making the company’s on-demand transit (ODT) solutions available to the Public Sector through Carahsoft’s reseller partners and NASA Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) V, Information Technology Enterprise Solutions – Software 2 (ITES-SW2), National Association of State Procurement Officials (NASPO) and OMNIA Partners contacts.

“Making our solutions readily available through Carahsoft’s wide range of contract vehicles is a significant step forward for TRC,” said James Cox, CEO of The Routing Company. “This partnership increases our accessibility to Government agencies and underscores our commitment to delivering cutting-edge transit solutions that are as impactful as they are easy to adopt.”

This strategic partnership ensures TRC’s technology is readily available to Government agencies across the United States. By utilizing cooperative procurement contracts on Carahsoft’s platform, the Public Sector can now easily access TRC’s advanced transit solutions without the complexities of traditional procurement processes, accelerating the adoption of impactful, future-ready mobility systems.

Carahsoft’s contract program plays a critical role in facilitating Government procurement for TRC’s transit solutions by providing trusted frameworks for agencies seeking access to a wide range of technology solutions. Government agencies at every level can now adopt TRC’s transit solutions with speed, confidence and efficiency.

“This milestone is a game-changer for The Routing Company, as it opens doors to Federal, State and Local Government agencies nationwide without the need for resource-intensive RFP processes,” said Dami Adebayo, TRC’s Director of Partnerships. “By leveraging Carahsoft’s contracts, we are accelerating access to TRC’s solutions and empowering agencies of all sizes to adopt transformative, scalable transit technology with unprecedented ease. This approval positions us to deliver our innovative solutions to a much broader audience, driving efficiency and accessibility in communities across the country.”

The integration of ODT services is still uncharted territory for many Government agencies. Carahsoft’s cooperative procurement contracts simplify access to TRC’s solutions, eliminating the need for resource-intensive RFPs and enabling agencies to explore and adopt ODT without being experts in the technology beforehand.

To further educate the Public Sector and potential partners, TRC recently published the industry’s first On-Demand Transit Buyer’s Guide, a comprehensive resource outlining 15 critical considerations for designing, testing and launching on-demand transit services. The guide equips agencies with the insights they need to future-proof their transit systems and is available for download on the APTA Knowledge Hub..

The Routing Company’s Pingo™ platform, which includes the Drive Pingo™ and Ride Pingo™ apps and the Pingo Dashboard™ operations tool, has powered over two million trips to date, helping agencies deliver efficient, flexible and scalable transit services.

“With the addition of TRC to our offerings, we are now able to provide the Public Sector with the software they need to help cities and transit services deliver more intelligent and efficient transportation solutions that adapt to the evolving needs of their communities,” said Lacey Wean, Program Executive for Smart Cities Technology Solutions at Carahsoft. “We look forward to working with TRC and our resellers in continuing to leverage todays most advanced IT solutions to create a smarter and safer Public Sector.”
