01. Context & Challenges
A Fleet E-Payment Provider in Vietnam
The company aimed to solidify its market position by creating value in B2B payments, improve operational efficiencies, and expand within the country before exploring partnerships in Indonesia and the Philippines. The focus was on securing key clients and enhancing user experience on the go, introducing new offerings for business, and maximizing usage of the self-service portal.
We were engaged to conduct a comprehensive product consulting mission: interviewing key B2B customers, identifying service gaps, and improving the end-to-end experience from driver payment at the station to payroll, timesheet management, cash control, and invoicing.
The engagement delivered a complete product assessment, competitive research, customer journey mapping, a new product roadmap, branding & repositioning recommendations, and an e-wallet & e-voucher strategy, culminating in the release of a new app version and e-voucher system.
