“Making our solutions readily available through Carahsoft’s wide range of contracts is a significant step forward for TRC,” said James Cox, Chief Executive Officer, TRC “This partnership increases our accessibility to Government agencies and underscores our commitment to delivering cutting-edge transit solutions that are impactful and easy to adopt.”

Getting Into the Public Sector

The strategic partnership ensures TRC’s technology is readily available to Government agencies across the U.S. 

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 their 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. 

Making On-Demand Transit Easy

The integration of on-demand transit 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 on-demand transit 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 for 2025. 

The guide is a comprehensive resource outlining 15 critical considerations for designing, testing, and launching on-demand transit services. This guide equips agencies with the insights they need to future-poof their transit systems.
