Zero-Emissions, Real Operations
Everyone’s buying the fleet. Few can run it.
We help transit systems transition to zero-emissions without wrecking service, burning out operators, or blowing up the schedule.
The Problem
Agencies across the country are struggling to make zero-emissions work. The buses have arrived — but the planning hasn’t caught up.
From fleet replacement ratios to mid-day charging failures, it’s clear: this isn’t a 1-for-1 switch.
What We Fix
- Buses don’t last full blocks → We redesign your block structure and run-cuts for ZE conditions.
- Charging breaks the schedule → We integrate charger time into scheduling and relief planning.
- Spares are constantly offline → We help define a realistic spare ratio based on your real ops.
- Operators + dispatch are in the dark → We train, brief, and align frontline teams on ZE adjustments.
- Infrastructure isn’t ready → We match planning assumptions to actual depot capabilities.
We don’t sell software. We don’t sell fleet.
We help you operate what you already bought.
HMS brings real-world experience from both public and private operations — and we understand how ZE buses disrupt daily playbooks.
Real Talk
- Many agencies across the nation have been forced to prematurely retire their zero-emissions/electric buses. including SEPTA and Everett Transit.
- Other agencies, including MTA NYCT’s ZE fleet, have bottom-tier reliability KPI.

Before the next wave hits, let’s get it right.
