Challenges
As part of its expansion plans, the Labstreet team was increasing its customer outreach in various geographical areas to conduct health checkups of the customers by collecting their samples.
Tracking teams in real-time: It was very important for them to manage the on-field team of technicians in real-time for timely collection of samples as they had committed to provide services within the time frame of 60 minutes. Any delay in collection would result in delayed service and dissatisfied customer.
Reducing Manual Efforts: Labstreet also wanted to optimize and automate the allocation of sample collection task to various technicians, so that they could save time and resources for other important activities. Scheduling and allocation were time consuming activities for Labstreet.
Delay in Service: The collection process used to get delayed due to different issues with the local traffic. Most of the time, technicians did not know about the shortest path to reach an address for collecting samples from different localities which could have saved time and other resources for Labstreet.
