Documentation and Optimization of Core & Back-Office Operations
Challenge
Foreseeable scaling difficulties due to historically developed operations processes and organizational structures, which had not yet been critically challenged
Approach
Documentation of as-is operations processes in a comprehensive, standardized operations process manual:
Collecting inputs through structured employee interviews and work shadowings across all core operations processes (establishment of local entities, HQ setup, fleet management, driver management, mobile devices, live operations)
Development of standardized process descriptions and creation of supplementary documents (checklists, deep dives, templates)
Deployment in Confluence
Design & implementation of target processes for prioritized areas, based on time studies, cost analyses, and customer feedback, e.g.:
Introduction of a bonus and malus system for drivers (~30% lower accident costs)
Data-driven, software-supported shift planning (higher utilization)
Software-supported fleet and damage management
Redesign of payroll processing (~90% time savings)
Design and introduction of an efficient new organizational structure for the Operations function, incl. clear responsibilities, dedicated role profiles, and change management
Result
Enabled 10x growth from 6k to 60k rides per month by ensuring an efficiency-optimized operation, fulfilling legal obligations, and laying the foundation for the SaaS franchise business
