#PUBBS Transit
Bus services provide solutions to urban mobility. Optimal Bus service design ensuring adequate profitability for operators and comfort and conveniences for the users plays a large role in attracting and retaining the user base. Our software proposes a novel approach by introducing a simulation-based bus service optimization model emulating comfort and convenience of individual passenger during the journey while ensuring minimum cost of operation.

#Hyperlocal Food Delivery
At the heart of the Hyper-local food delivery lies a logistical challenge- deliver cooked food from neighbourhood eateries to customers. This simple problem of logistics is complicated by factors such as shelf life of cooked food, engagement of delivery partners, and the implication of such a service on an urban area. To address this challenge we have applied micro-simulation of a hyper-local delivery model, helping us optimize it from the perspective of multiple stakeholders.
