Project overview

Design and delivery of a new application used by over 4,000 agents to significantly improve the performance, usability, and scalability of a pick-up and drop-off (PUDO) network. The app’s reengineering target was to scale our client’s out-of-home (OOH) operations rapidly.

Client background

A leading courier and parcel delivery company that is part of a large international network in Europe. Our client boasts an extensive network of courier and pick-up and drop-off (PUDO) points, including parcel lockers.

Goals

Designing from scratch a new app to support growing network of PUDO operators. Updating the tech stack and engineering practices to reduce the time to market by 80%, from six months to just one month. Implementing an easy and fast integration process with PUDO partners to allow the preparation of the expansion of the PUDO network to 30,000 unique points. Unifying and simplifying the in-app processes to decrease onboarding time by 80%. Introducing new, up-to-date features such as seamless API integration with third-party systems, enhanced barcode scanning using the smartphone's camera, PIN on glass payments, and support for the latest hardware.
