Ooven approached us with a very delicate idea, that requires alot of research & thought, they wanted to create a system that allowed a lunch based delivery service to partner with various offices to provide a canteen facility by curating specific foods from nearby restaurants.
Ooven's idea just resonated with our ideals as this required the entire team to be
challenged to provide a unique solution. So the app needed to the basics of a food delivery app but also provide the
ability to manage daily food items or food items pre-planned by the user over a period of time & the ability to show
curated menus for the entire week.
This required a dynamic backend system to be created that managed zones, and in these zones restaurants & offices
were managed locally. This has to be one of the most thought-provoking projects we have done at Switch.
Observe the restaurant market & delivery trends.
The UI had to be image driven & feel crisp in it's design yet be driven by purpose.
A proper charted course for quick designing & development.
In depth survey & application/backend testing to attain optimal quality.
Far far away, behind the word mountains, far from the countries Vokalia and Consonantia, there live the blind texts.
Ooven required a largescale platform to be built & required constant back & forth communications with multiple restaurants, zones & offices. We had to come up with a structure for hierarchical overflow of the backend & how the stream of data would flow. This also required calculations for server loads & database management for the constant flow of the data between customers, delivery partners, restaurant circles, zone managers & offices.
Since the application required the users to be on the platform for a decent amount of time on daily basis. It required the customer the ability to schedule & customise their daily lunch based on the given menu for the week. So the UX had to have the ability to either order daily or pre-plan your entire week's lunches, at the same time make it easier to change your pre-planned meals.
