Gas Buddy .com Problem Statement
The problems:
· Sorting by distance is not always the most beneficial (“closest is not necessarily the best”)
· Filtering by gas brand is not possible
· Unable to monetize the service provided to consumers
· Develop a sorting order for display that is beneficial
· Allow the user to choose the brand that he/she wants to see
· Explore potential ways to monetize the customer base by bringing sellers into the business model
Scope:
· The estimated cost of the new system should be approximately $100000
· The new system should be implemented in six months
· The development and operations shouldn’t require any significant additional manpower.
