ABSTRACT
Ambuquick is a mobile application for Android mobile phones which aims to provide fast emergency response using private ambulances. The platform will improve the traditional way of calling an ambulance through landline during emergency and nonemergency cases. Users and system requirements were identified through interviews with private ambulance owners, staff as well as customers/patients. The application also aims to provide the customers/ patients with at minimal cost of interfacility transfer. The business model as well as proposed business processes were presented to determine the components needed for the development of the application.
