Client Profile
The client is a leading Bike Aggregator in the US, a start-up that has recently raised multi-million-dollar investment. They have a public-private partnership model of operation and work along with the local government to facilitate traffic decongestion and green commuting. The client employs business intelligence along with a peer-network to enable bike sharing across multiple cities. Their goal is to develop a data-driven omnichannel platform for short-distance eco-friendly commuting in congested cities.
The Challenge
The client’s field service app had limited capabilities, and could not scale to support the company’s robust growth. The client needed a best in class mobile application to:
The client also needed to automate scheduling management and provide riders the real-time information so that the bikes and docks are available where and when they need it. There was a pressing need for a robust solution to predict demand surge during special events and the corresponding availability of bike corrals and corral attendants.
After a detailed due-diligence, Damco was shortlisted to provide a best in class FSL solution without increasing the overhead cost. Being a startup, the client does not want this solution to become a financial nightmare, and concurrently do not want to lose their focus on their business growth.
The Solution
Damco’s seasoned consultants immediately understood the client’s concerns and advised the client to leverage the ecosystem of world’s # 1 CRM, Salesforce to mitigate these challenges. Salesforce’s Field Service Lightning (FSL) is the best product to streamline inventory management, schedule bike-shares, and docks with real-time data regarding bike availability. Damco deployed FSL to provide mobile access for riders and corral attendants and track bike stock in real-time using Salesforce app. FSL Managed Package is installed to integrate scheduling policies, global actions, and optimization rules. FSL mobile application is deployed to enable communication with riders and corral agents while mapping new processes and workflows. We also created rules to disallow scheduling based on real-time weather conditions.
