The Challenge
The client’s operations spanned various cities across Europe, the USA, and Canada, relying on multiple data sources like Expedia, Avis, Hertz, Rentalcars, Enterprise, and Sixt. However, the data collected was inconsistent, lacked crucial attributes, and failed to provide actionable insights that could drive business strategies.
Key challenges included:
- Fragmented Data Sources: Disparate data from multiple vendors made it difficult to standardize and analyze information effectively.
- Limited Data Attributes: Existing data lacked details on car categories, luggage capacity, and specific location attributes, which are essential for strategic pricing and service optimization.
- Currency and Pricing Variability: The absence of standardized currency data made price comparison across markets problematic.
- Inconsistent Location Accuracy: Location data often lacked precision, impacting route optimization and customer service quality.
To overcome these challenges, the client required a robust, scalable solution that could enhance data accuracy and provide a comprehensive view of the market.
Our Solution
DataDwip implemented an advanced data scraping solution tailored to meet the client’s needs. Our platform aggregated and standardized data from multiple sources, enriching it with additional attributes for deeper market insights. Here’s how we tackled the problem:
- Comprehensive Data Enrichment: Our solution expanded the data attributes to include car categories, luggage capacity, and precise location coordinates (latitude and longitude), providing a detailed view of the rental options.
- Standardized Currency Information: By integrating currency data, our system allowed the client to compare prices accurately across different markets, enhancing pricing strategies and transparency for end-users.
- Real-Time Data Updates: We enabled near real-time updates, ensuring the client always had the most current market data, which was crucial for dynamic pricing adjustments and promotional campaigns.
- Visual Analytics Dashboard: We developed a user-friendly dashboard that visualized data trends, pricing variations, and customer preferences, making it easier for the client’s team to interpret and act on insights quickly.
- Origin-Based Pricing Insights: The solution included search origin data, helping the client identify regional pricing patterns and customer behavior trends, allowing for more targeted marketing strategies.
