CHAPTER II: THE ESSENTIAL INVESTMENT PROJECT 
2.1. Demand for use Taxi at the moment 
The taxi service branch is one of the industrial capable of positive growth in the 
macroeconomic situation in country at present. We estimate the taxi market will stabilize 
growth, especially in the large cities due to: 
(1) .Flow of passengers using the road traffic have increased significantly with the average 
speed at 9 % / year comes from the travel demand of the people as well as the increase in 
international passenger traffic to Vietnam. Moreover, the growth index of road traffic and the 
number of international tourists in the first 5 months of 2006 there has been a strong 
breakthrough compared with 2005. Consequently, we believe that taxi services will grow 
faster than by the transport market, strong growth in both scale (traffic volume) and number of 
passengers. 
Source: GSO 
1. (2) People's incomes increase , traveling in the rainy season and the development yet 
strong enough of the public transport such as buses, motor taxi ... making people use the taxi 
services more because of the service and its utility. 
In short, today, growing social , people's lives improved physically and mentally. 
Demand for food, clothing, cosmetic, including the transportation of people increasingly more 
attention. Besides the appearance of the motorcycle, car, bus is transportation mainly of 
people, the demand uses taxis increasingly became popular. Demand for uses.

2.2. The difficulties in management and operating taxi system 
Currently, the taxi companies operate as the traditional way: the customer will call to 
operator, he/she will recieves and writes information on paper: address, taxis and address of 
customers... then, this information will be send to call center and up to the talkie. In parallel 
with the large number of people and vehicles, the administration - management and resolve 
issues arising relating faced many difficulties, may be mentioned the following difficulties 
( 1) Call-Centre works 
- It was mainly based on the radio. Staffs could not locate the taxis so that they must 
depend entirely on the response of drivers whenever they wanted to go or arrived the points. 
Many drivers intended to cheat by reporting the wrong cars’ numbers, wrong locations or not 
reported to the Call-Centre when they got the customers to avoid being tracked. 
- At the tradition Pick-up-points where drivers used to gather to get and manage queues 
by themselves, there were some negative status like: the monopoly status (just a group of 
drivers could join that rank, the other could not), drivers could choose customers to serve, 
cheat customer, offer negotiated prices higher than by taxi meter.. 
- Beside, when those areas were short of car, staffs could not know in advance so that 
they could not give notice for drivers to bring car back to serve customers. 
(2) Customer Service works 
- The investigation mainly based on the radio and self-conscious of drivers. 
- Staffs resolved the complaints based on their personal experience so that must of our 
feedback were not convincing. 
- The rate of successful resolution is very low (<50%) 
(3) Defer shifts for drivers 
- The defer shift’s work was difficult, inaccurate and unprejudiced because it much based 
on the drivers’ reports and staffs’ records. 
- Drivers and employees took advantage of this work to make their profit and cause 
financial damage for the company. 
(4) To revoke taxis due to overdue debt 
- It was very difficult and took much time for enforcement staffs to take cars back 
because they could not know cars’ locations while drivers tried to hide by many ways. 
(5) Issue the VAT invoice for customer 
- Many drivers colluded with customers to apply for VAT invoice or co-operate with taxi 
card users to imprint receipts for false trips. In these cases, staffs could not check or verify. 
2.3. GPS solutions for taxi management. 
2.3.1. The features of GPS technology 
The application of GPS technology in the management of transportation are becoming 
more popular in the world and this is a service that provides high value-adde, base 
telecommunications technology , information technology, background basis of geographic 
Vinataxi Page 4
Investment GPS System in Vinataxi 
information systems (GIS). Today, It’s commonly used in the shipping industry on the 
worldwide. This application is used to monitor, track and manage vehicles in order to increase 
efficiency and save costs. 
The system provides the key features following: 
 Monitor, track parameters velocity, direction of travel, the status start and shutdown 
machine 
 Track and route simulation of vehicle movement 
 Statistical distance, use time, estimated the fuel consumption 
 Warning excessive speed, moving out of the area or the route permission 
2.3.2. System Structure 
 The system consists of 04 main components: 
 Server coordinated car: located on Cloud server. This system is common to the taxi 
business. 
 Call center server: Server system stored customer data and vehicle coordination rules. 
Each taxi company will have own server. 
 Vehicle software: each driver will have own software coordinate car 
 Rack mounted in the taxi: a taxi have a GPS device setting in car screen to help locate 
vehicles and communication between the truck with center 
Figure: Structure taxi management system using GPS technology 
 The steps conditioned car 
Vinataxi Page 5
Investment GPS System in Vinataxi 
1. Customers call to center to require vehicle 
2. Software coordinator is used will send the customer address for the server is waiting car 
moderators. 
3. Servers looking for taxi the nearest with customers and notice pickup . 
4. When drivers acknowledge agreeing to pickup customers, this information will be 
forwarded by the coordinator. 
5. Coordinator will notify customers: license plate, time to car arrive 
6. Drivers will notice the situation: they're on the way to pick up, has arrived, customer has 
gotten in or gotten off taxi, to the Private Branch Exchange (PBX) can control situation of 
vehicle. 
Compared with the old method is use radio, the new system has the advantages following: 
+ Call-Centre works 
- System can locate taxis on the Google map so that staffs can keep track of taxis, can 
know their status (Hired or For Hire) then try to contact drivers to ask them to go to the points 
or even show them direction to there. After that staffs call back to give our feedback to 
customer about taxi number and estimated time for taxi to come. 
- It makes the dispatch job be more efficient and has got customers and drivers 
compliments. 
- By GPRS, the queues are updated automatically by the system, drivers can get jobs 
orderly, can’t refuse the short-trips, can’t offer higher price... It also helps stop the monopoly 
status as a driver can register to join Q in multiple ranks. 
- By the Q-Board-Display, staffs manage taxis on each rank better as they know the 
quantity of taxi on queues, status of them ( Free, On call or Meter -on…). It helps re-arrange 
taxis to serve customer effectively 
+ Customer Service works 
Vinataxi Page 6
Investment GPS System in Vinataxi 
- The jobs dispatched by GPRS have the taxi number, time of dispatching and also the 
route so that drivers must be more responsible to their customers. Many drivers return 
belongings to customers before being recognized. The number of complaints has decreased 
significantly. 
- Currently, the rate of successful resolution is above 80%. 
+ Defer shifts for drivers 
- Employees can easily check and confirm the business downtime of taxis correctly and 
objectively 
- It helps reduce the quantity of defer shifts and the negative attitudes of staffs. 
+ To revoke taxis due to overdue debt 
- Locations of cars are shown on map clearly so that enforcement team can come to take 
car back quickly. 
- For drivers who intend to turn off the GPRS equipments, staffs still can track their 
locations by using some tools of GPRS system. 
+ Issue the VAT invoice for customer 
- Staffs can check the authenticity of trips by viewing the cars’ routes. 
2.4. Status of application of GPS technology in the management of taxi in Vietnam 
Worldwide, GPS devices have been widely applied in many fields, especially for the 
transportation sector; However, in Vietnam, location-based services are just beginning to be 
exploited with some simple applications and currently on the market domestic taxi, have yet to 
be a business application of GPS technology in the management and operating. 
GPS applications is essential for the transport activity. To develop the public transport 
system, the State should have focused investment for this solutions, so effective achieves 
tremendous will to the development of the economy. If the private sector to participate in the 
application will be difficult and slow because investment costs for large operating systems 
2.5. Conclusion about necessary of this investment 
As above, we have analyzed the demand use taxi of Vietnamese is increasing and there is 
an opportunity for the development of Vinataxi,well as other taxi firms in the country. 
However, during operation, almost all taxi firms appear shortcomings as well as difficulties in 
management and administration. 
Realizing the benefits that GPS technology brings, Vinataxi the proposed decision 
ComfortDelGro Group (Singapore) invests positioning system into the management and 
administration in Vinataxi. GPS technology helps Vinataxi: 
+ Reduce personnel costs 
+ Support for professional management 
+ Anti-revenue losses 
+ Support Executive 
+Raising customer service 
+ Raising awareness of driving. 
In Short, if invested now, Vinataxi will be the first taxi firms in Vietnam applies GPS 
technology into management and this will be competitive advantage of the Vinataxi compared

  • 6. Investment GPS System in Vinataxi CHAPTER II: THE ESSENTIAL INVESTMENT PROJECT 2.1. Demand for use Taxi at the moment The taxi service branch is one of the industrial capable of positive growth in the macroeconomic situation in country at present. We estimate the taxi market will stabilize growth, especially in the large cities due to: (1) .Flow of passengers using the road traffic have increased significantly with the average speed at 9 % / year comes from the travel demand of the people as well as the increase in international passenger traffic to Vietnam. Moreover, the growth index of road traffic and the number of international tourists in the first 5 months of 2006 there has been a strong breakthrough compared with 2005. Consequently, we believe that taxi services will grow faster than by the transport market, strong growth in both scale (traffic volume) and number of passengers. Source: GSO 1. (2) People's incomes increase , traveling in the rainy season and the development yet strong enough of the public transport such as buses, motor taxi ... making people use the taxi services more because of the service and its utility. In short, today, growing social , people's lives improved physically and mentally. Demand for food, clothing, cosmetic, including the transportation of people increasingly more attention. Besides the appearance of the motorcycle, car, bus is transportation mainly of people, the demand uses taxis increasingly became popular. Demand for uses. Vinataxi Page 3
  • 7. Investment GPS System in Vinataxi 2.2. The difficulties in management and operating taxi system Currently, the taxi companies operate as the traditional way: the customer will call to operator, he/she will recieves and writes information on paper: address, taxis and address of customers... then, this information will be send to call center and up to the talkie. In parallel with the large number of people and vehicles, the administration - management and resolve issues arising relating faced many difficulties, may be mentioned the following difficulties ( 1) Call-Centre works - It was mainly based on the radio. Staffs could not locate the taxis so that they must depend entirely on the response of drivers whenever they wanted to go or arrived the points. Many drivers intended to cheat by reporting the wrong cars’ numbers, wrong locations or not reported to the Call-Centre when they got the customers to avoid being tracked. - At the tradition Pick-up-points where drivers used to gather to get and manage queues by themselves, there were some negative status like: the monopoly status (just a group of drivers could join that rank, the other could not), drivers could choose customers to serve, cheat customer, offer negotiated prices higher than by taxi meter.. - Beside, when those areas were short of car, staffs could not know in advance so that they could not give notice for drivers to bring car back to serve customers. (2) Customer Service works - The investigation mainly based on the radio and self-conscious of drivers. - Staffs resolved the complaints based on their personal experience so that must of our feedback were not convincing. - The rate of successful resolution is very low (<50%) (3) Defer shifts for drivers - The defer shift’s work was difficult, inaccurate and unprejudiced because it much based on the drivers’ reports and staffs’ records. - Drivers and employees took advantage of this work to make their profit and cause financial damage for the company. (4) To revoke taxis due to overdue debt - It was very difficult and took much time for enforcement staffs to take cars back because they could not know cars’ locations while drivers tried to hide by many ways. (5) Issue the VAT invoice for customer - Many drivers colluded with customers to apply for VAT invoice or co-operate with taxi card users to imprint receipts for false trips. In these cases, staffs could not check or verify. 2.3. GPS solutions for taxi management. 2.3.1.
