Years back, Rwanda initiated a plan to make the country an important tech hub. The result of that ambition is the sheer number of startups, which are developing solutions to address local challenges. 

Fixa is a Rwandan startup that links companies with pre-vetted blue-collar workers. The startup was founded in 2020 by Tafara Makaza.

On its platform, it explains that its “aim is to ensure corporations have access to reliable help and management solutions for workplace projects of all sizes while supporting service providers with more job opportunities, social protection, and formal training.”

Apart from providing businesses with reliable workers, Fixa also allows site supervisors to conveniently measure attendance and productivity. With the Fixa mobile platform, supervisors can assign workers to specific tasks when they need to, access performance history in real-time, and take instant decisions when a worker is underperforming. 

It also allows businesses to manage their blue-collar workforce, and instantly brief all the selected workers on project details or even updates. To subscribe to Fixa services, businesses and supervisors have to book a demo (a video conference) with the sales team to present their projects. 

Currently, Fixa claims over 300 workers in its network, and some fifty job requests are processed weekly.
