Semester Project Overview: ARI ~ www.arifleet.com

ARI is the world’s largest privately held family-owned fleet management company.

ARI is a global company, focused on providing sustainable fleet practices, best in class service and high powered technology to drive vehicle fleet efficiency up and keep costs down. ARI’s goal is to provide great customer service and uncover as much value as the customer’s fleet can deliver. Along with their global associates, ARI manages more than two million vehicles worldwide.

This semester we will work with ARI to create the digital tools needed to develop an opportunity, establishing a new remarketing program, whereby ARI can digitally manage the auction processes and vendor relationships from start to finish from an internal and external facing position.

Each team will explore and focus on 1 of the below areas, although overlaps are possible.

1. External Interface (portal):

Develop an external portal that can manage the running and selling of vehicles for clients. Provide the ability to schedule pickups (fee based) and then provide status on where the vehicle is in the process. Clients should be able to manage and view the entire life cycle of the vehicle with a good user experience.

2. Internal Interface:

Develop technology enabled tools that will manage all of the vehicles that ARI is contracted to sell (this falls outside the normal process). These tools should manage the internal requirements that need to be managed to support the external process. This includes capture of the data around the client requirements. Capture updates as to where the vehicle is in the lifecycle as well as client details.

3. Integration Interface:

Develop technology enabled tools that will allow for and support the External and Internal interface. This includes, but is not limited to, a full lifecycle review which will capture where the vehicle is in the lifecycle, how the details are recorded about the vehicle, maintenance, sales terms, etc. This should be viewed as managing the lifecycle of the vehicle from the decision to pick up to the sale.

Reminder – your team should focus on one opportunity as listed below:

Opportunity 1: Zapier~Gigster~Smyte~Heptio

Opportunity 2: Fetch Robotics~Ripcord~Snap Route~Nginx

Opportunity 3: Kong~G2 Crowd~Shippo~Gitlab
