PRODUCTS AND SERVICES Zonar’s Updated EVIR Confi guration for Sanitization Public transportation has become an even more crucial resource for people to get to where they need to be but some riders have wondered about the cleanliness of their buses. To help transit fl eets ensure vehicles and equipment are properly sanitized regularly for the safety of everyone onboard, Zonar has updated its patented Electronic Verifi ed Inspection Reporting (EVIR®) solution specifi cally for ensuring the sanitation of metro buses. The new confi guration for sanitation through EVIR allows transit cleaning crews to verify that every step of the sanitation of metro buses has taken place, as outlined by the American Public Transit Association (APTA) standards of best practices. It also compliant with Public Transportation Agency Safety Plan (PTASP). In addition, this confi guration can help transit organizations to streamline their vehicle sanitation process for improved productivity while prioritizing cleanliness of operations; digitize the records of cleanings while eliminating a lengthy paper trail and make a major task easier to manage; meet new Federal Transit Administration requirements of documenting specifi c disinfectants used for sanitation of vehicles; increase productivity by identifying the exact areas and sanitation requirements of each zone; and set and monitor expectations of how to sanitize areas and the duration of each task.
