ABC Waste Logistics
UI Design Internship
As part of the internship, I worked on a project focused on developing a Waste Logistics mobile application tailored for drivers. My responsibilities included creating detailed mock-ups, high-fidelity wireframes, and interactive prototypes to visualize the app's interface and features.
Within the same project, I worked on the development of the design for the Desktop Administration App, which is currently in progress. You can access it HERE.
ABOUT THE PROJECT
The main goal of the project was to create a mobile application for a company that was already established and operating within the market.
The company supplies construction bins, porta potties, and water services to businesses and individuals. Currently the company has several drivers who deliver, pick-up and drop off mentioned items without any logistic application. I have been considering to create an app that will provide drivers with more convenience and higher efficiency, and at the same time will lower overall fuel consumption.
THE IDEA
The ABC Waste Logics Driver App will improve driver productivity and reduce operational costs with step-by-step directions and automated pick-up and drop off progress. Drivers will use the app to see the location of their next job with all important information.
The ABC Waste Logics Driver App will work in conjunction with an online waste management software solution that will make it easier to meet the day-to-day operational needs of waste management businesses.

Helps to create logical information structure, which simplifies user navigation through the application.
WIREFRAMES
STYLE GUIDE
Helps to create logical information structure, which simplifies user navigation through the application.
VISUAL DESIGN
The application will have a clean and user-friendly visual design, with a simple and intuitive menu for easy navigation.
Log in and welcome page
When the driver will launch the app on the device, log in or sign in options will be available. After entering the login information, the driver will be asked to allow the app using current location. Then the list of the upcoming orders will pop up
List of orders
Once logged in, the driver will see the work order for the day consisting of drop off and pick up orders with the ability to see special instructions on each order.
Navigation
After clicking Start navigation button the driver can see all locations pinned on the map . Each pin will have pick up or drop off details. The app will calculate the best route to each destination and give the estimated time of arrival time.
Schedule
Based on the administrative route management the driver can see an overview of each day of the week, the upcoming week and month.
Guide
The Guide section showcases the different types of products and services. Each product will have photos perfect for the new drivers to be knowledgeable of all products to ensure no wrong items are picked up.
Notifications
When the order come through midday, the driver will be notified immediately and have an ability to except or decline a new order. If accepted the order will be added to the driver's tasks and the route will be rearranged automatically

Conclusion
Throughout my ongoing Internship, I've been actively engaged in this project. This experience has not just allowed me to apply my skills but also encouraged me to think creatively in addressing design challenges. During this period, I've acquired invaluable insights into user-centered design principles, prototyping, and effective collaboration with the team. All the feedback has significantly contributed to my growth, for which I am sincerely grateful.
The remaining duration of this internship presents an opportunity for continuous learning, growth, and the delivery of impactful design solutions.
Within the same project, I worked on the development of the design for the Desktop Administration App, which is currently in progress. You can access it HERE.
