WHAT IS THE MAIN GOAL FOR THIS PROJECT?

The primary goal of this project is to assist MyRide901 with UX/UI designs that will contribute to two major initiatives:

1. ShopConnect Appointment Booking Feature:

• Provide UX/UI design solutions, including a flow diagram and high-fidelity prototypes for a feature that will allow vehicle owners to schedule service appointments with auto repair shops. This feature will enable the generation and sending of .ics files containing links to MyRide901 service history and additional supporting data (e.g., vehicle service records, upcoming service recommendations).

1. MyRide901 Website Redesign:

• Provide high-fidelity prototypes for a website redesign that reflects the latest trends in website design, optimized for a better user experience and alignment with MyRide901’s business and marketing objectives.
