Overview<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Dropie is a logistic application that connects logistics companies to customers, for both national and last-mile delivery of packages and parcels. It is primarily targeted at connecting small business owners to suitable logistic partners. So, it helps vendors send deliver their goods to their customers effectively.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row disable_element=”yes” thb_divider_position=”bottom” el_class=”align-center”][vc_column offset=”vc_col-lg-7 vc_col-md-9″]\t

Why did we bother with this?<\/h3>\n

Presently, there are a number of small businesses in my country\u2019s capital city. And these businesses mostly thrive on logistics to operate as online operations have become a necessity in recent times, especially since the COVID pandemic that started in 2020.<\/p>\n

As a make-shift solution, a lot of online businesses use bolt or Uber (passenger ride hailing services) as a logistic platform to deliver goods and services although that was not it’s intended purpose. And sometimes this causes a problem between the driver and the customer.<\/p>\n

Also, although there are a lot of logistic companies in Abuja, they do not have proper visibility to the customers they need, and they usually operate via WhatsApp groups, without proper coordination organisation. As a result a lot of packages get missing, and sometimes these riders elope with customer goods.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row thb_divider_position=”bottom” el_class=”align-center”][vc_column offset=”vc_col-lg-7 vc_col-md-9″]\t

Users and Audience<\/h3>\n

This product was developed to target three market segments, although it was developed in four modules.<\/p>\n

The three segments include;<\/p>\n

Small businesses<\/strong> who access to proper logistic platform.<\/p>\n

Logistic companies<\/strong> who need proper visibility and access to the customer the need and a platform that would help them organise their business more efficiently.<\/p>\n

Private vehicles<\/strong>\u00a0or truck owners who have extra time and are looking for an extra source of income with their vehicles.<\/p>\n

The last module covers the admin dashboard for dropie’s parent company, what we referred to as the “super admin.”[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row thb_divider_position=”bottom” el_class=”align-center”][vc_column offset=”vc_col-lg-7 vc_col-md-9″]\t

It was decided that I was to try to make Helium while Kantos Kan was to enter the palace and dispatch Sab Than. If successful he was then to follow me. He set my compass for me, a clever little device which will remain steadfastly fixed upon any given point on the surface of Barsoom, and bidding each other farewell we rose together and sped in the direction of the palace which lay in the route which I must take.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row disable_element=”yes” thb_divider_position=”bottom” el_class=”align-center” css=”.vc_custom_1668220891837{padding-top: 4vh !important;padding-bottom: 6vh !important;}”][vc_column animation=”animation bottom-to-top” offset=”vc_col-lg-6 vc_col-md-8″][vc_column_text]\n

    I worked with two other designers. I designed the entire mobile application for both the customer and the agents. The other designer worked on the admin side of the platform and another handled the design system. These would not be included in this case study.<\/p>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t
