A partnership with R&D enables organizations to maximize service levels and minimize costs, both now and in future years.

R&D is a transportation management firm offering a wide variety of consulting services to various customers throughout California.

R&D is providing Regional Centers and School Districts with process strategies and services to enhance transportation safety, service quality, and cost containment for their consumers and students. We are unique in that we are not a transportation provider. We work with existing service providers on behalf of our customer, to create and maintain a more efficient and effective transportation system. Our philosophy is one of creating a team partnership between our customer, the service providers, and day programs/schools.

The R&D philosophy was developed by, our founder, Charles J. Devlin. Prior to founding R&D, Mr. Devlin served as Director of Transportation for Los Angeles County Department of Education. During his tenure with LACOE, Mr. Devlin encouraged a team culture in his department. It was so successful, he decided to share his philosophy with other agencies, and in May 1991, R&D Transportation Services, Inc. was born.

R&D is proud of our accomplishments in the transportation management arena and the successes we have assisted our customers to achieve. Since its inception in 1991, our company has enjoyed steady growth. Our expertise and customer focused approach enable us to create customized solutions that are the right fit for our customers.
