Ramos Systems, Inc. was founded in 1983 to provide software consulting and services for developers of computer aided dispatching systems for the transit industry.

Ramos Systems has participated in the development of transit dispatching and vehicle location systems as a subcontractor, providing software systems for transit companies all over the North America continent. Our software was used in the development of systems for the Ft. Worth Transportation Authority (The "T") in Ft. Worth, Texas, Tidewater Regional Transit (TRT) in Norfolk, Virginia, the Kansas City Area Transit Authority (KCATA) in Kansas City, Missouri, Transit Authority of River City (TARC) in Louisville, Kentucky, Pioneer Valley Transit Authority (PVTA) in Springfield, Massachusetts, and Omnitrans in San Bernardino, California.

Ramos Systems personnel have also developed software for various other transportation industry projects around the country including a traffic control system for the Delaware Memorial Bridge in Wilmington, Delaware, a train dispatch system for the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority (MBTA) in Boston, a taxi company dispatching system in Dallas, a trucking company dispatching system in South Carolina, and an electronic passenger information system for the Spokane Transit Authority (STA) in Spokane, Washington.

Ramos Systems has provided software design support for projects such as the bus dispatching system being used by Seattle Metro and the used by Le Société de Transport de l'Outaouais (STO) in Hull, Quebec. We have provided proposal support for a number of projects including the Southern California Regional Transportation District (SCRTD) in Los Angeles and the Metropolitan Area Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) in Atlanta. These dispatching system projects have all involved the transmission of data to and from microprocessor based devices installed in the fleet vehicles, selective calling of drivers, and the collecting of data for report generation and performance monitoring.

Ramos also provides support to Transit companies in specifying and acquiring Automatic Vehicle Location systems. Advances in GPS technology have made it practical to have constantly updated location and schedule adherence information about every vehicle in a transit fleet. Ramos Systems’ experience can help transit companies navigate the myriad details of developing specification, selecting a vendor, and managing the implementation of an AVL system.

Ramos Systems is currently developing a set of software packages to aid transit companies in managing its resources. The first product in this line of software is GeoSched™, a geographical scheduler for fixed route systems.
