Case Study 1

Product analysis

Imagine that you are the product manager responsible for Bolt’s ride-hailing product. One of the ideas that was added to your backlog is the ride scheduling functionality. Analyse this scheduling feature from the product perspective and make a recommendation whether to proceed to the implementation step. What is important for flawless rider and driver experience? What are the constraints to consider when planning this feature? Should Bolt build it or not, and why? How would you measure success? As a deliverable for this task, walk us through your analysis and decision-making process.

Press release

Imagine that Bolt is planning to release a feature for the rider app that allows users to schedule rides in advance. Write a press release (under one page in length) for the scheduled rides feature. The press release is intended for publishing on different news websites.

Data Analysis

The key aspect of ride-hailing is the price. It relies on technology to collect accurate tracking data so that a fair price can be calculated at the end of the trip. Fortunately, our riders are quick to tell us when they overpaid and we can use that feedback to improve our product.

Please analyze the dataset to identify top opportunities for reducing the number of overcharge tickets and present your results. Please provide us with a PDF file/document with the findings. Finally, you shouldn’t spend more than 8 hours on this analysis.
