Hamburg-based technology company Wunder Mobility, which is known as a carpooling app, has recently unveiled its newest employee transportation services to strengthen its service portfolio in Metro Manila.
One of the first customers for the new service is Nowcom, a leading BPO with more than 400 employees in Ortigas. The company has been using Wunder Shuttle in Metro Manila since June. The shuttles are available in multiple regions of Metro Manila. Mobile technology guides drivers according to passenger demand.
Jay Kamdar, CEO of Nowcom, said, “Our employees use the Wunder app to plan their daily commute. The shuttle usage is completely transparent to the Nowcom management and we can easily control costs. Employees are reporting increased by having better and more reliable commuting options.”
Nowcom employees have responded positively to the introduction of the new shuttle service. The commute time was reduced by 44-percent, and employee satisfaction with the service reached nearly 100-percent.
“The pilot started with the morning shift. Now, we are discussing implementing the services for the night shift, which lacks more reliable and safe transportation options”, adds Kamdar.
Marubeni Corporation supported the project into new mobility services. The Japanese trading company Marubeni Corporation invested and collaborated on a proof of concept with Wunder Mobility and Nowcom, as a step towards their future mobility portfolio.
“Marubeni and Wunder Mobility have the right combination of technology and an innovative mindset to bring mobility to the next level. This partnership shall open the doors for the future of mobility.”, explained Moura.
