INTRODUCTION
This particular project is designed and development in order to be utilized by the car rental
companies which are specialized in renting the cars to their customers. This project is an online
web based system where the customers are in a position to view the cars which are available for
hire, there customers can register into the system, view the profiles as well as booking the car.
Reason for the project
Due to the advancement in the technology, as well as the penetration of the interne, this has really
enhanced the growth of various businesses around the globe. The growth of the businesses has
been supported by creation of a clear and reliable communication network between the
companies and the customers over the web (Bhardwaj and Garg 2018). Car rental is not left out
of this. The services which are being offered by the web based car rental system developed
includes the following;
a. Vehicle reservation and booking whereby the customer is able to view all the vehicles
which are available for booking on real time basis prior to the time expected for the
customer to pick up the vehicle.
b. Customer registration whereby the customer details are captured into the system, the
system is able to monitor the customers transactions and the same details are utilized in
offering the best and improved services to the customers.
c. Group Booking of cars for the customers who need more than one car at the same time.
This will offer a reduced and better pricing for some particular number of cars which are
being offered by the companies for the same customer.

Statement of the problem
There was issues with the customer retention, staff management as well as vehicle management
at the car rental companies around the globe. Most of the customers who hire vehicle could not
come back since there were situations where the customer would come for car hire only to find
out that another person had already booked the car hence leading to a lot of disappointments to
the customer (Hanus and Koschnicke 2012). This was being caused by the fact that the customer
was not able to view and ascertain the vehicles which are available at the company for hire and
instead had to physically visit the company yard for checking. This could waste a lot of time for
the customer hence reducing customer retention ability. The system developed increases the rate
at which customers are retained as the customer will have a wide variety of choices remotely ay
the comfort of his home prior to hiring time.
Objectives
To design and develop a web based car hiring system that is effective and efficient enough for the
customer to be in a position to register and reserve cars as well as the company to be able to
effectively manage their cars.
