A VICTORIAN SKI RESPORT is proving fruitful grounds for Orcoda’s minibus rideshare service, which reports transport of more than 5,000 passenger movements at Mt Buller Ski resort during just the past two weeks.
Overall, Orcoda – a publicly listed company (ASX:ODA) and one of Australia’s leading logistics solution providers for the healthcare, transportation and resources sectors, it explains – transported more than 20,000 passenger movements in the same period at the resort – with numbers increasing daily, it confirms.
Ultimately, the total contract revenue is estimated at AUD$25 million over the nine-year contract period, it says.
The company’s solid start to the Victorian ski season is under Orcoda’s Logistics Management Agreement with the Victorian State Government and the Mt Buller/Mt Stirling Resort Management Board, it explains.
Orcoda reports the following in relation to its logistics technology and logistics management of the contract:
– The Orcoda app is delivering great customer experience based on feedback from users;
– The Orcoda driver app is working well for our vehicle drivers based on their feedback;
– The Orcoda payment platform is intuitive and easy to use;
– The Orcoda booking platform for transport bookings works as intended;
– The Orcoda call centre was well prepared, and so is handling the higher passenger volume than might normally be expected;
– The Orcoda reporting function from our logistics technology platform is delivering great reports for our management team and to Mt Buller Mt/Stirling Resort Management Board; and
– The Orcoda team is proud to be managing up to 40 vehicles on the mountain utilising its Transport Logistics management skills and its Orcoda Logistics Management System (OLMS) with its bus operator: Busfleet.
COMPLEX LOGISTICS
Mt Buller Sales and Development manager Matt Elliot said: “At this stage of the season, Mt Buller/Mt Stirling Resort Management Board is satisfied with Orcoda’s management of the complex transport logistics operation at the resort. The app-based consumer interface and logistics management platform is delivering on our stakeholder needs.”
Orcoda managing director Geoff Jamieson said: “We have put a lot of effort into delivering a robust technology platform that delivers great results for all stakeholders.”
“People are obviously relieved to be able to enjoy the ski season this year.
“Orcoda is happy to contribute to making great memories. Thankfully Melbourne is currently not in lockdown. This means that Mt Buller is experiencing record numbers coming to the resort, but obviously we are mindful to monitor the fluid Covid situation.
“The driver’s procedures involve enforcing state Covid recommendations. “Our aim is for our technology to assist them to be ‘best in class’ in terms of both safety and efficiency for themselves and the customers.
“The Mt Buller Transportation App can be downloaded from the Apple Appstore or Google Play”.
