What VELOCITI SOLUTIONS LIMITED does

Velociti Solutions Limited is a UK-based vertical software and consultancy provider serving passenger transport operators and authorities across bus, rail (passenger, freight, and light rail), and supply chain segments. Formed in November 2024 from the consolidation of three legacy brands (EPM, Omnibus, and 3Squared), the company operates from Bromsgrove, UK, with over 100 employees and a presence in the UK, APAC (Hong Kong), and the Middle East (Saudi Arabia).

The company's technology architecture centres on two core platforms: the Omnibus Software Suite for bus operators (covering planning, scheduling, timetabling, crew duties, rostering, depot allocation, control room management via Control360, the Engage driver app, incident management, customer services, analytics via Insights, and mandatory UK data-sharing formats including BODS, TransXChange, GTFS, and EBSR) and the RailSmart Platform for rail operators, organised into People and Safety (EDS competency management, Virtual Campus LMS, Digital Notice Boards, SafeTrack), Customer Information (Dynamic Route Maps, Trainset & Timetables, Live Departure Boards), and Operations (Incident & Fleet Management, Online Rostering, Remote Condition Monitoring, Mobile Consisting Application, Co-Pilot driver advisory). The platforms integrate with core UK industry data systems (TRUST, TOPS, Darwin, Network Rail) and are deployed via SaaS/cloud.

Velociti generates revenue primarily through annual subscription licences for its modular software platforms, supplemented by specialist consultancy services (BSOG certification covering over 90% of UK Government BSOG expenditure, concessionary reimbursement, multi-operator ticketing auditing, and scheduling training). Go-to-market is enterprise sales-led with quote-based pricing, targeting large bus operators (100–5,000+ vehicles), transport authorities, rail passenger and freight operators, and light rail operators. The company was acquired by CBPE Capital as majority shareholder in July 2025, with Literacy Capital realising a 14.8x return, and has since pursued international expansion and acquisitions (notably ASC and its AssetMinder fleet maintenance product in April 2026).

Core offering

Velociti Solutions provides cloud-based transport management software platforms (Omnibus for bus operators and RailSmart for rail operators) covering planning, scheduling, timetabling, crew duties, control room operations, driver apps, incident management, customer information systems, and analytics.

Product overview

Velociti Solutions offers a comprehensive portfolio of transport management software and consultancy services for bus operators, rail operators (passenger and freight), light rail operators, and transport authorities. The company's software architecture consists of two core platforms: the Omnibus Software Suite (covering bus operations from planning through to analysis) and the RailSmart Platform (comprising People and Safety, Customer Information, and Operations suites for rail). These platforms integrate over 40 distinct modules covering scheduling, timetabling, crew management, control room operations, driver apps, incident/fleet management, competency management, learning management, customer information systems, data analytics, and regulatory compliance tools. The product portfolio was unified in late 2024 through the rebrand and integration of EPM, Omnibus, and 3Squared brands. Velociti also provides specialist consultancy services including BSOG certification (auditing over 90% of UK BSOG expenditure), concessionary reimbursement, and multi-operator ticketing auditing. The company employs AI, optimisation algorithms, and cloud computing across its solutions.
