Amazon Locker Service

Amazon Locker Service

You need to make sure the locker size > package.

Requirements.

  1. User should have the ability to select a locker close to their area.
  2. User should have this option while checking out a particular order.
  3. Once the order is placed and expected ETA is known we need a way to estimate the amount of locker space that will be required for each package (Small / Medium / Large) lets call this lockerSlot.
  4. The deliveryMan should be able to open a particular lockerSlot and put the package in the slot. (sake of simplicity we assume a 1-to-1 mapping of package and slot)
  5. Once the package is inside the lockerSlot he generates and sends a unique OTP valid for 3 days.
  6. If the package isn’t retrieved in 3 days the package is refunded.

Workflow

  1. User selects locker service
  2. Gets notified if the locker would be available for him on the selected date or give him option of selecting new date or change delivery type.
  3. DeliveryMan opens the slot put the package and sends OTP to the user.

  4. User retrieves the package.

    Not so happy path == If the chosen locker service is full then notify the user about the earliest delivery date/time based on slot availability. Allow user to change the delivery type or accept the new ETA.
