Step 01Problem

Do any of these sound familiar?

  • Case 01Our drivers keep quitting and the shuttle may stop
  • Case 02Staff double as drivers and can't focus on their real work
  • Case 03We can't arrange a replacement when a driver is suddenly absent
  • Case 04Shuttle management and records depend on one person

ARTi takes on that shuttle — both the driving and the management.

Step 02Service

All you provide is the vehicle.

We take on not just driving but the management work around operations. You never need to instruct drivers daily or adjust shifts.

What you provide

Just the vehicle

Owned or leased, from Hiace vans to microbuses and medium or large buses

Step 05Safety

Safety efforts and what happens if something goes wrong

Preventing accidents through daily roll calls and inspections — and, if something happens, reducing your burden as much as possible. When you entrust operations to us, both are our job.

Daily safety efforts

  • Pre-trip roll call & alcohol checkBefore every shift, we check and record health and alcohol status.
  • Daily and periodic vehicle inspectionsWe check tires, brakes, lights and more, and report any problem right away.
  • Driver trainingWe train drivers in safe driving and in how to treat passengers.
  • Backup for absencesEven with a sudden absence, we arrange a replacement driver and keep running.

If an accident happens

  1. 1On-site responseARTi's driver secures safety and contacts police and relevant parties.
  2. 2Report to youWe report the situation to you immediately.
  3. 3Dealing with the insurerARTi is basically the point of contact for the insurance company.
  4. 4Only necessary decisionsWe consult you only when your approval or decision is needed.

* For vehicle insurance, the insurance you hold is used. We explain coverage and procedures before the contract.

Step 06Reason

Why people choose ARTi

  • 01

    A company born in the transport industry

    ARTi began in 2018 as a transportation business. We manage with the awareness of scheduling and safety that comes from knowing the front line.

  • 02

    Cross-prefecture operation since 2019

    We started shuttle bus management in Fukuoka. Today we also run long-distance, cross-prefecture routes in Kansai and Kyushu, and accept inquiries from all over Japan.

  • 03

    A driver setup that doesn't stop with absences

    For routes running seven days a week we assign two drivers, building a setup where the shuttle doesn't stop even with a sudden absence.

  • 04

    Records and reports, digitally

    As a software company, we built systems such as LINE roll-call records ourselves, so operations are recorded and shared accurately.
