Problem Statement
- Booking requests were managed manually, often leading to delays and missed opportunities.
- Quotations were generated offline, slowing down customer response time.
- Assigning jobs to drivers lacked structure and visibility across cities.
- Driver time tracking was inconsistent, affecting both payroll and accountability.
- Staff attendance records and job timesheets were managed in isolation, leading to reporting gaps.
- No centralized system to monitor completed vs pending vs upcoming jobs.
Challenges
- Replacing an entirely manual process with a scalable, digital booking system.
- Designing intuitive interfaces for both office administrators and on-ground drivers.
- Ensuring role-based access for different user types: Admins, Agents, and Drivers.
- Implementing time-logging capabilities that align with real-world driver workflows.
- Creating dashboards and reports that are actionable, not just informational.
- Developing a mobile app with offline support and a simple user experience.
