Nevertheless Curitiba also has a strong manufacturing pedigree with the South American headquarters of Volvo trucks located here. As a consequence the city’s population swells to over 4 million during week days. In order to cope with such large numbers of people the local government had to find a solution to the congestion throughout the city.

    Taiwan Taxi Case Analysis

    • 3251 Words
    • 14 Pages

    The most evident reason that the results of Taiwan Taxi’s implementation of the iCall system were not similar to those of Comfort Taxi is that the information system was not adapted for the needs and wants of Taiwan Taxi's drivers. It was also very problematic that Taiwan Taxi did not emphasize the significant value one would feel by becoming a driver for their company. This could have easily been done this by offering incentives to newly employed drivers. Taiwan Taxi could have also created value with external factors such as employing a marketing campaign, advertising the features of the new iCall system, as well as the added benefits of safety, security and efficiency. The needs and wants of the company’s drivers were not met because management did not recognize the cultural differences that existed between taxi drivers in Singapore and Taiwan. One would not have difficulty believing that several assumptions were made regarding iCall and its potential effects, the largest of which being that Taiwanese and Singaporean taxi companies operated in the same manner, had drivers with the same levels of technological proficiency, dealt with the same kind of customers, and ran the same types of routes. Many of the users of Taiwan Taxi's iCall system felt that it added no value to their service.…
