See how we built an AI- based fuel supply solution, MPS (Mobile Petrol Station) that fulfills your anytime fuel demand for vehicles and generators.
MPS (Mobile Petrol Station) is an on-demand fuel delivery project, based in Nigeria, developed by our team at Biz4Group. Here a customer can pre-book, and order petrol and diesel for their vehicles and generators, at desired location and time slots. It has three portals: customer, driver and admin. Customer and driver portal are mobile-based cross-platform applications, whereas admin portal is web-based.
Our team at Biz4Group are skilled in designing mobile petrolling solutions, as per the requirements of a client. The one such designed already, is named FuelIt.
This feature on customer portal lets user to order fuel for multiple vehicles and generators, in one go. Delivery of the fuel can also be scheduled on a prior basis.
Here, the user has an option to choose payment methods. Credit, Debit, and Bank transfer are available.
The user can track his live order, wherein he has access to connect with the delivery driver, in case the delivery is delayed.

Troubleshooting Guide
While developing the application, our team has gone through the following challenges and applied relevant solutions, regarding the project:
Challenges
Accurate Location Tracking
It was important to ensure accurate location tracking. It includes both urban areas and remote areas, with weak GPS signals.
Real-time Data Synchronization
Maintaining real-time synchronization of data, was yet another challenge, between the mobile device and central server.
SOLUTIONS
Our team has used advanced algorithms, so as to improve location accuracy. The algorithm also periodically caches location data to account for signal loss.
The team has used asynchronous data transmission, with local caching. They have implemented background synchronization processes. It then updates the server, when connectivity is restored.
Challenges
Scalability
It was important to ensure that the system can scale to handle a large number of users.
Cross-platform Compatibility
It was imperative to ensure that the application is compatible with multiple range of mobile devices, along with hardware specifications.
SOLUTIONS
Our team at Biz4Group has used scalable cloud-based services. They have implemented an efficient database management system.
Our team has developed the application, using cross platform frameworks. They have conducted extensive testing on various devices, to ensure compatibility.
React is applied in the design of interfaces and applications for the web. It is a JavaScript framework, which was used for creating the views for a single page application. It is developed and supported by Facebook.
This open-source framework is used for building cross-platform mobile applications. Through this application, developers can create advanced apps, for iOS and Android. It can be done using a single codebase, which is written in JavaScript and React.
