Case study · Zappter Engine

Ten contractors. One slot engine.

Slots follow the region, the installation type and the time of day, so what customers can book matches what the contractors can really deliver.

The company and the challenge

Open Dutch Fiber builds and operates open fibre networks in the Netherlands. More than ten contractors do the installations and several wholesale partners sell the network. Every installation needs an appointment that all of them can see and keep. ODF wanted one booking engine for it, designed, built and piloted within two months.

The pilot

Three weeks to the pilot

During the pilot the team changed the process 25 times. Each change was live in less than a week.

What Zappter built

One engine for customers, contractors and partners

Self-booking

The customer picks the day and the time slot directly.

The slot engine

More than ten contractors work from the same slots.

Back-office booking

The system suggests the most efficient slot and shows nearby bookings, so routes stay short.

API and export

Partners query, book and cancel slots, also by address ID. Data goes to the data warehouse.
