With the year 2020 finally behind us, we are reminded that each year, GTI is faced with new challenges to overcome in order to continue providing safe and secure transportation services. GTI’s primary challenge in 2020 was how to provide uninterrupted transportation services, safely and efficiently, during the worldwide COVID-19 pandemic. Once again, GTI rose to the occasion, prevailed, and without pause or interruption of service, responded to the challenge.
As a government service provider, GTI was deemed an essential workforce and continued providing critical transportation services throughout the pandemic.
GTI personnel worked closely with Facility Staff, Facility Managers and Regional Managers to ensure all transport missions were conducted efficiently, safely and in a timely manner for our Federal, State and County government agency partners.
The division met the COVID-19 challenge head on by establishing new safety protocols governing the proper use of PPE and established new vehicle sanitation requirements.
Despite the challenges associated with the pandemic, GTI closed out the year with an astonishing safety record. In 2020, GTI drove more than 14 million miles in the U.S. and internationally, while successfully and safely transporting more than half a million passengers. GTI’s transport missions for the year were all accomplished without a serious incident, while safely managing COVID-19 related issues
A job well done to our nearly 450 GTI staff members and congratulations from the GTI Corporate Team. Your commitment to excellence honors our motto of “Delivering safe and secure transportation, with service second to none.”
