The Solution
Dominic Grammaticas, the Managing Director, spoke BusinessCom Solutions Africa about a more formal solution, implementing Google Workspace across the company. Dominic and his team recognized the potential of Google Workspace to deliver a more stable, central platform for all communications.

With a Google Workspace account for every driver one can check availability and arrange transport anytime from anywhere. You can add in notes, too, about particular requirements of guests, such as language, snack preferences, or their itinerary, or tell drivers to pick up other passengers on their routes, to make the most of available resources.
