#COVID19 has already brought drastic changes around the world. It has been changing the way we live every single day. People are having a hard time buying goods, supplies, and other basic necessities due to imposed enhanced community quarantine and other strict measures to avoid the spread of the virus.
To minimize the number of people going out in public places and to ensure social stability, the City Government of San Fernando through the KMCC – ICT Section developed the San Fernando On The Go, a web-based information system that serves as an online delivery application in aid of procuring the needed basic necessities of residents from selected barangays in the city.
The same program is in support to the latest advisory of DILG dated April 18, 2020 encouraging LGUs to use online marketing and delivery of goods through the use of various online platforms.
For its pilot operation, the City Government has recruited a total of fifty (50) tricycle drivers as third party providers. As of yesterday, April 22, 2020, the KMCC-ICT together with the Local Economic and Business Development Office (LEBDO) trained the registered drivers on how to use and handle the digital platform. Drivers will be divided into 5 batches, with 10 drivers to be deployed daily during operating hours.
This application would not just help the residents but would also provide opportunities to our idle tricycle drivers to earn income while public transportation is suspended during the enhanced community quarantine.
Moreover, selected members of the City Incident Management Team (IMT) were also trained as they will be manning the overall management of order requests and assigning of drivers using the platform.
San Fernando On the Go will be officially launched on April 25, 2020, Saturday, that will run from 8:00AM to 5:00PM, daily.
Your City Government is taking strides and finding innovative solutions to the economic, social, and technological challenges of the pandemic. The People’s City continues to adapt and embrace digital transformations to connect with people.
