Operational Impact
The use of Google Cloud solutions has allowed Beryl to focus on innovation rather than fixing IT faults. The reliability of the Beryl bike and e-scooter hire scheme has directly improved customer and community wellbeing. The company's home-grown IT ecosystem gives Beryl the freedom to innovate and adapt its offering to each of the cities it serves. The use of BigQuery has enabled Beryl to identify customer onboarding issues and prioritize solutions. The company also plans to increase adoption among customers who don't have smartphone access by developing a service enabling customers to unlock vehicles by sending an SMS text message. | |
