Project Overview

Our Qatar-based client approached us with the requirements to develop an on-demand multi-services application such as food, grocery, laundry, beauty, salon, and a handy service provider under one roof. It helps customers who don’t want to install various applications on their mobile phones to get different services. Customers can easily pick up the service they need by using websites and mobile apps.

The marketplace allows various suppliers to register and submit about the service they are providing to the consumer by using the app or website. Customers can use the web and mobile apps to make sure they don't miss out on any of the services while driving all the way to restaurants or grocery stores.

The project also includes a designated driver's app, which allows drivers to register as delivery people with their details and reply to orders for deliveries based on their proximity to the nearest point or respective available times. The features in the driver's app have been designed with the convenience of both delivery staff and consumers in mind.

The Challenge

The Internet has created a viable for on-demand service providers to get assembled under one roof and outsource their services. They assist potential customers and enterprises in identifying their needs and completing them at low costs. The efficient on-demand service marketplace connects service experts and customers to provide a variety of services like food, grocery shopping, laundry, beauty, salon, and handy home service.

  • The biggest obstacle in this app development process is to connect various service providers and their customers with no flawless moves. Clients want to add various services under one roof that would work with online payment modes and real-time tracking options. Customers can add many services to their single cart management.
  • It would split the payment into two ways, One for administrator and service providers based on the commission percentage.
  • Unified order and booking management solution in which completed all the tasks are immediately reflected on both the customer-facing and admin-side interfaces.
  • The most difficult part was processing a CSV file with hundreds of goods and managing all the necessary metadata.
  • Multiple goods and their details can be exported and imported using the admin and service panel interfaces.
  • With the growing number of users and service providers, it's becoming more difficult to keep track of correct pickup and drop-off locations.
