Abstrakt: India ranks number one for the number of road accident deaths caused across 199 countries as reported in the World Road Statistics, 2018 followed by China and US (Business standard, 2022). As per the WHO Global Report on Road Safety 2018, India accounts for almost 11% of the accident-related deaths in the World. Many of the fatal injuries could be avoided if the victim had quick access to the medicine. The aim of this project is to analyze and provide insights to the implementing party such as social entrepreneurs, start-ups or government agencies about the potential of installing First Aid Medicine Vending Machine in the accident-prone areas and in the locations having less access to medicine. In the event of a mishap at locations where therapeutic stores are not within the compass, First Aid Medicine Vending Machine ensures the availability of first aid kit 24x7. It has a QR code, which can be scanned by the customers to make payments for the first aid medicines received. The machine would be capable of accepting paper notes and also scan debit or credit cards. Also, it is proposed to provide the nearest hospital address and contact numbers on the machine. The project proposal includes: Identified accident zones in Bangalore city, Human Resource framework and strategies to implement the proposed plan, Marketing strategy and promotional plan to create awareness among consumers about the usage of First Aid Medicine Vending Machine, Cost analysis for the implementation of the proposed project.
