SOCGEN GreenPool

SOCGEN GreenPool design philosophy lies on resolving four critical problems in Conventional carpooling methods:
(1) Flexible timings – Permanent/conventional carpooling is not viable in today’s demanding working environment
(2) Lower Trust levels as none of the platform has good background verification for users
(3) No Good system in place which will provide dynamic matches for every ride that anyone want to share
(4) Cumbersome settlement process leading to breaking of carpools
Design principles adopted in GreenPool are:
(a) Dedicated app for IT professionals working in SocGen.
(b) On the fly matching of rides based on preferences including Workplace, Residential community, Gender, origination, destination, time of travel
(c) Ability to view the profiles & choose your ride colleagues.
(d) Convenient settlement process – Green Money(online Wallet)
(f) Keep a track on the Green Miles (shared distance),
(g) Ratings of rider/driver to help people choose the right riding partner every time

Key car owners influencing carpooling as a sustainable way to commute:
(a) Escalating fuel cost
(b) Increasing awareness on the necessity to reduce carbon foot print & higher pollution levels
(c) Increasing traffic congestion & higher stress levels due to driving on daily basis
(d) Shortage of car parking space in Large Organizations
(e) Increasing Toll cost as more & more highways are being converted to toll roads
(f) Enforcement of carbon foot-print audit putting pressure on large companies, globally, to advise their employees to carpool
(g) People behavioral change to move out of the virtual networking to real networking where they can interact with people face to face
