The Pragati App introduces a dynamic bidding system that allows transporters to participate in competitive bidding for securing orders. Through this feature, transporters can submit bids based on the cost they offer for a particular job, taking into account the collector's preferences and the availability of their fleet. This system enables transporters to:
- Compete for Orders: Transporters can actively engage in the bidding process, where their bids are evaluated against others, allowing them to secure orders by offering the best value.
- Optimize Fleet Utilization: By participating in the bidding system, transporters can align their fleet availability with demand, ensuring optimal use of their vehicles and resources.
- Cater to Collector Preferences: The bidding process considers the specific preferences of the order collector, such as cost efficiency, delivery speed, or fleet capability, ensuring that the most suitable transporter is selected for the job.
