Development
We will require a team of 10 programmers to build our app (about 5 months).
App will include a legal document making customers liable for any damages to the
vehicle or accidents they may have while driving the car.
Negotiate with the city of Waterloo to gain access to public parking spaces.
Negotiate with the Universities to acquire on campus parking.
Acquiring Parking Spaces
App Development
Development
We’ll start with a fleet of 50 cars, using the automatic 2013 Chevrolet Spark.
Chevrolet offers discounts to fleet buyers and 0% APR.
Car Fleet Acquisition
OnStar Installation:
Our cars will have the “Safe & Sound” OnStar plan.
Service Performance
2 full-time programmers will maintain and upgrade our app (assisted by two
co-op students)
4 part-time employees will be responsible for inspecting the cars, filling the
gas tanks and ensuring that the cars stay scattered throughout the city.

Car Maintenance
We will use Sullivan Automotive for any maintenance needs we may have for our
car fleet.
Location
We will start our business in the city of Waterloo in order to take
advantage of its heavy concentration of University students.
By maintaining our cars scattered around the city (our employees
ensure this), we will maximize the chances of our customers having
access to our cars wherever they are.
We will not have a physical location to store the cars, thus lowering our
fixed costs.
