Freight logistics app case study

Load Empire

A logistics app redesign

Empireload serves as an advanced logistics platform, providing drivers with instantaneous access to freight opportunities featuring premium and exclusive pricing.

Description

This platform facilitates drivers in discovering freight opportunities for transportation across various locations within the United States. Additionally, drivers have the capability to submit bids with their own rates for the available trips listed on the load board.

Why did I start this project?

I initiated this project based on insights gathered from my colleagues' experiences. The previous application presented significant challenges, resulting in frequent errors by both drivers and dispatchers. Additionally, the visual aesthetics of the app were not well-received. In response, I undertook a comprehensive redesign, incorporating new features to enhance the overall user experience.

Response of Qualitative & Quantitative Research

User research is dedicated to comprehending user behaviors, needs, and motivations through observation techniques, task analysis, and various feedback methodologies. In my study, I employed two distinct research methods: Qualitative and Quantitative analysis. For qualitative analysis, I conducted interviews with 10 individuals involved in hauling to gain insights into the challenges they encounter during load booking. Additionally, for quantitative analysis, a survey was administered to a sample of 50 participants.
