Indigenous Ride Hailing Company, Alpa1 Rides has commenced orientation of Driver-Partners to orientate them on the company\u2019s high service delivery expectations and listen to their views on what quality service should entail.\u00a0 The orientation cum induction, which started August 15 and expected be a regular programme, took place at the Alpha1 Rides\u2019 state-of- the-art Partners\u2019 Lounge on the Third Floor of the Iconic UAC Building on the Marina.<\/p>\n

Speaking to newsmen at the end of the second day of training, Ejoke Okpan, Alpha1\u2019s spokesperson, said that more than 200 drivers have been inducted since orientation commenced two weeks ago. According to her, it is crucial for all partners to be integrated into the business as a way to get their buy-in, saying it is a way to prevent \u201csub optimisation of the Alpha1 ecosystem-a situation where we are moving in one direction and our partners are moving in another.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is our belief that once we and our partners are on the same page as far as service delivery is concerned, we can better make our riders happy by giving them the kind of quality service they deserve.\u201d According to her, the orientation is also an opportunity to sound-out Partners on how they think the partnership can achieve the goals agreed by both parties.<\/p>\n

Driver Partners who attended the orientation programme say that Alpha1\u2019s approach to the business is different from other players who do not as much as listen to their complaints, let alone ask their opinions on matters on how to improve the offering. \u201cAll they care about is their commission.\u201d<\/p>\n

Excited about the Alpha1 package, Kaosisochukwu Kelechi, a partner Driver said, the alpha1 \u201cplatform has good intentions for drivers and for riders while Elebute Michael Agboola commended the charges saying, \u201cYour charges are Ok.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Okpan, the orientation is part of an integrated marketing and outreach activity to reach-out to stakeholders that began with a social media campaign early August and has reached over 50,000 prospects and engaged as many. The company\u2019s marketers have also been unleashed in town and campus storms to encourage download of its user-friendly Apps for Provider and Client Partners.<\/p>\n

Already, she said that drivers on the Alpha 1 platform are fetish about good manners, which is a credo valued and encouraged by the company. Drivers who display these qualities are rewarded with points and vouchers that have immediate impact on their earnings, she said.<\/p>

The deliveries and School businesses, for example are heavy on trackers.
