Transportation software transition reminders

Approaching dates, launch items for Drives platform

The Ohio Department of Education and Workforce is nearing completion of the Drives platform implementation and will soon migrate SFPS data. Meanwhile, it is advised that the bus inventory be thoroughly reviewed, and driver rosters be updated to reflect only current employees.

Key dates:   

• Dec. 17: Deadline to submit all completed driver training records.               
• Dec.19: SFPS will be closed for migration.       

As a reminder, no certificates will be processed during the migration period. If a crash occurs, plan to notify the Ohio State Patrol within 48 hours and submit a T-10 within 15 days once Drives is active.
