Earlier this month, the Suzhou passenger traffic Management office to the city's taxi drivers issued a notice, known as the further maintenance of the stability of the taxi market operation Order, has joined the city 22 taxi companies to convene a meeting, expressly prohibit taxi drivers use "tick-tock Taxi" and other Third-party mobile phone taxi software driver end. Recently, including the Suzhou delivery of several companies have signed a promise with the driver, the driver installed a "tick-tock Taxi" count as illegal operation, will be punished.
Suzhou said they had issued this notice not only for "tick-tock taxis" but for all third party software outside their electronic calling system platform.
From 2004 onwards, Suzhou Traffic Management department has invested tens of millions of dollars, set up a platform for electronic vehicles, from August 2012 began to access some mobile phone taxi software. Up to now, Suzhou taxi call platform for a total of access to 6 software taxi--in addition to the "Suzhou Line", "Wireless Suzhou", "Suzhou Map", "139 travel", "Call Car Treasure" 5 local software, "Quick Taxi" also joined at the end of last year. After entering the call platform, these software has canceled the bargaining function and the destination inform function, the customer calls the car demand will be unified to the Suzhou Guest Tube Department electronic call the vehicle platform, after the passenger Tube department Unified Dispatch, the information will be sent to the city more than 4,000 taxis receive the terminal.
Due to the "quick Taxi" access, Suzhou on the call platform software called the car business from the past only dozens of per day to upgrade to thousands of orders. According to the latest data released by Suzhou, the city's March taxi software called Car Total business volume of 178,000, daily average business volume of about 5,700, accounting for the total number of calls to 1/4.
Access to the Suzhou Taxi call platform, "quick taxi" public relations director Ye Shi said there are two reasons: "One is because we want to enter the market, the second reason is to make reservations this piece they do well." ”
"Tick a taxi" the government affairs department Zhao Siwen said, "Tick a taxi" does not intend to access the Suzhou platform, except because every year to run the platform of the enterprise (that is, Suzhou Intelligent Transportation Technology Co., Ltd., Suzhou is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Transport Investment company to pay 48,000 yuan of access costs, another important reason is that access means to give up the driver's data, including real-time location, vehicle running track, etc., which will make "tick-tock" large data analysis ability useless, affect the "tick taxi" With the passenger data for the driver to carry out accurate push, so that the operation mode of dispatching taxis.
For the Suzhou Department of Administrative intervention to intervene in the operation of the market is reasonable, Shanghai Institute of Finance and Law, executive Dean Fu in an article comments: Now the Suzhou Electric Call center requires a taxi software and call center docking, means they can get a tick-tock, fast, and so on, with a penny of money, which is the result of huge sums of money that the two companies have invested in upfront. If it is a normal business behavior, then it should be the Suzhou Intelligent Transportation Technology Co., Ltd. Call center to tick or fast purchase data to ——— look at the Internet industry mergers and acquisitions in the past few years, the company has so much data, at least billions of dollars. But here the catch is that these taxi software companies to the call center to pay access fees, it is inconceivable.
During the two sessions in early March, Transport minister Yang expressed the "taxi software" support attitude, but for the software in the use of the process may exist in security, increase, pick and other issues, Yang said that the Ministry of Transport and related departments to speed up research and development of standardized mobile phone taxi software guidance, To establish standardized technical standards for taxi calling service, and to support and guide the establishment of taxi service management information system in cities and above.
It is reported that Nanjing taxi official call platform will be formally put into use next month, the local transportation Department also hope that the social taxi software can improve the function (such as the cancellation of the fare increase function), to join the official call platform. As to whether to cooperate with the official Nanjing Electric calling platform, tick a taxi to say to see the concrete mode of time.
Up to now, tick-tock and fast has been with Beijing, Shanghai, Shenzhen and other transport Committee to reach a cooperation with the official call platform to complete technical docking. According to the Beep, these call platform access mode is more reasonable, taxi software in the local orders are not unified by the official platform to send to the traditional vehicle terminal, the driver can not only use the original driver end App Rob Single, and can use the taxi on the car call terminal to rob a single.
