  • applications and led rewrites of problematic sections of the code base that had been written prior to Jobberman hitting Internet scale.

    Toyin Oshinowo - VP Growth & Data Science Computer Systems Engineering Ph.D. and former CIO of Hedonmark Group, a prominent in technology consultancy. Toyin ran Online Infrastructure Management at GTBank. Prior to her move to Delivery Science she was an advisor to the company working with our data science and product teams to implement solutions that marry business insight with technical execution. Toyin was also the Project lead on the Nigerian Stock Exchange Redesign in 2011.

    Our Merits DS is a small enterprise doing cutting edge work in Nigeria. We are pioneers in our field, and are tackling challenges that are of primary importance to Enterprises in Nigeria.

    In Nigeria, as well as in many other low-trust economies, some of the biggest challenges businesses face come via their logistics and supply side processes. Many large enterprises suffer sizeable losses as a result of their inability to main sufficient oversight over these processes. What DS does is to identify such blind spots and the consequent loss they realise and deliver control of these blind spots back into the hands of the Enterprise.

    Our solutions are innovative and sophisticated pieces of technology designed by our veteran team of developers. Most of our solutions are built and adapted for purpose. As such, our solutions are designed to maximise ease of implementation i.e. not only is it our policy to ensure that our solutions are as intuitive and easy to use/learn, but also that they can fit easily into the pre-existing technological framework that our clients might already have invested in.

    Our press presence Delivery Science is still a young company, and in spite of our youth we have gathered some accolades and generated a sizeable amount of local and international press attention.

    In January 2015, CNN named Delivery Science one of 10 African Startups that rocked 2014, the article can be found here: http://edition.cnn.com/2014/12/24/tech/africa-tech-startups-2014/ and the online magazine TechCabal picked on us as one of eight start ups to watch in 2015 found here: http://techcabal.com/2014/11/11/8-nigerian-startups-to-watch-in-2015/

  • In March 2015, Delivery Science was also profiled by Techpoint.ng, the article can be found here: http://techpoint.ng/startup-week-delivery-science-big-data-1million-two-years/

    Our services In low-trust economies like Nigeria, the movement of goods from one point to another is plagued with logistic challenges. These challenges are of primary importance to large organisations who suffer the most losses as a result. These large organisations range from Fast Moving Consumer Good Companies, to service sector companies to agencies of government. The difficulties result first from a lack of control and oversight over supply chain processes, and next from a lack of accountability with field operators.

    Delivery Science has tackled these issues, and has developed solutions designed to tackle logistic challenges in its entirety.

  • All of our products are specialised variants or subsets of our Field Insight Solution.

    The driving force behind this product is to build technology & industry competence in managing field workforces and locations, within Nigeria and eventually Africa.

    In doing so we ask the following questions;

    - What are the key concerns large organisations face? - How do their field activities lose them money? - How can they more effectively deploy their field assets to make more money?

  • Proof of Delivery

    POD gives enterprises real-time access to the location of their goods, and the activities of their field operators. POD works using GPS via an Android phone, so no special hardware is required.

    Managers are given visibility of their cars at all times including their real time location, applicable schedules, the staff involved in handling etc. In addition, the product comes with a data gathering and compilation function which equips businesses with retrospective insight into the trends that emerge from their business processes over time.

    The result is that enterprises are able to significantly reduce losses arising out of leakage, unaccountable handling of goods and inefficient allocation of resources.

  • Disco Manager

    Disco Manager is another product from Delivery Science. The objective of this application is to provide Disco providers with the ability to view live - in the field information regarding electricity distribution within their regions.

    The application gives Managers to ability to monitor agents, customers, assets from a central dashboard thereby saving money, time and effort required to gather this information. The application also gives Managers insight into how efficient their operations are.

    The result of this application is that DISCOs are able to identify weak points in operations, loss of revenue, and inefficient allocation of resources.

  • Transport Manager

    Transport Manager is our logistics tracking solution. This solution assists enterprises who already utilise a GPS tracking solution in addition to a ERP solution that issues Way Bills to third party logistics firms.

    Transport Manager works as an automated system of recording and validating, way bills issued by enterprise companies.

    This solution provides the following features;

    An improved validation process Reduction of man made errors (both erroneous or intentional) An audit trail Improved turnaround times for validation and reconciliation

  • Health Management System

    Health Manager System Pro is our Public Health Management solution. The application was built in response to the Ebola epidemic and slow response times from the Governments of the affected West African countries.

    HMS Pro works as an automated system of recording and managing cases, locations, and resource allocation in times of public health emergencies.

    Using HMS Pro, the relevant users would be able - in real time - to gather information about their field staff within their mobile quarantine centres, in various geographic locations, in addition to their public hospitals and warehouses on the magnitude of the crisis. From this they would be able to access the resources at their disposal, and the resources needed.

  • Automated Stocktaking Application

    Inventory management processes in Nigeria are heavily manual. Many enterprises operate systems that are not secure, disorganised and time consuming. The result is that many enterprises exhaust a lot of resources in long and tedious processes of stock and inventory management that may or may not continue to leave room for theft of stock and other avenues for losses.

    ASA is a subset of our proposed Inventory Manager solution. ASA ensures that every item that enters or leaves the stockroom is recorded as well as the staff involved in the process. This way, a reliable and accurate account of inventory is always maintained.

  • Other Applications

    Payroll Plus

    Enterprises in Nigeria still rely on manual or semiautomatic means of handling their staff payments and compensations. For example, many firms still employ an individual to manually process payments, benefits, deductions, taxes, pensions etc for all their staff. Payroll Plus was developed to fix this problem.

    Payroll Plus is a high utility platform developed for employers to manage all employee compensation functions. It works as a simple and secure web based platform on which enterprises can register all their employees and micro- manage their compensation as well as their statutory obligations (like taxes and pension schemes). Employers can register employees or invite them to register themselves.

  • SME Genius

    In Nigeria, the process of lending to Small and Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs) is tedious and involves several levels of interfacing between financial institutions and the prospective borrowers. As such, there is an impetus for institutions to invest resources in researching and verifying the creditworthiness of all applicants, and this process is costly and inefficient. In response to this unique problem, DS developed SME Genius.

    SME Genius is an web or android application that is utilised by prospective borrowers to record their financial activities for a period specified by a financial institution. The information gathered is at the disposal of the bank in general and the agent in charge of the applicants account. The banks can use the app to infer and conclude on whether an SME is creditworthy, without needing to spend money on tedious information gathering ventures. In addition, the SME applicant is given tips and aided in getting an appointment with the bank. All the relevant requirements are listed and at the disposal of the loan seeker.
