102616DASH - Delivery As a Service for High-streetsClosedCollaborative R&DInnovate UKDASH (Delivery As a Service for Highstreets) combines multiple technology & transport partners to create a collaborative, emissions-reducing delivery proposition involving crowd-sourced deliveries & revitalisation of inner-city high-streets via an ‘easy-entry’ B2B & B2C mobile software platform. This enables: (a) utilisation of low occupancy local authority car parks as delivery hubs (X–Doc) for courier operators, with adjacent Electric Vehicle rapid charging infrastructure, (b) operators to reduce inner city courier fleets & replace with multiple crowd-sourced onward delivery options, (c) customers to have variable delivery options (B2B & B2C), (d) a scalable business opportunity for electric cargo bicycles, (e) option for taxi drivers to multi-purpose vehicles, (f) a platform for local independent high-street traders to offer goods for delivery, click & collect & drop-off points, (g) integrated pricing, payment, routing, scheduling & customer parcel tracking options. DASH is an interoperable, scalable platform technology that can be expanded to target multiple freight operators & retailers to maximise socio-economic & environmental impact.
