Service operations fail when planning lives in one place, customer communication lives somewhere else, tracking is inconsistent, and teams spend too much time coordinating exceptions manually. Plusvans needed operations software that could support route planning, pickup scheduling, and service visibility for a real-world collection business.

I built a web platform that combined route planning, real-time pickup tracking, customer-facing scheduling and service visibility, and internal workflows for managing collection operations. The stack used Next.js, FastAPI, and Supabase, with an admin interface that made the operational layer practical to use every day.
