NorthernNet - e-commerce website

ChallengeAs part of the BBC moving to Manchester the Regional Development Agencies (RDAs) have been given a significant financial incentive to ensure the whole of the North benefits, NorthernNet is the entity to allow high speed connectivity across various locations in the North.SolutionWe have been requested to design and develop a B2B e-commerce website that will promote the proposition and allow the booking of Media Access Bureau’s (MABs) across the region. The booking process should only take three steps.ResultsThe site conveys the proposition and allows companies to access the bureaus via user accounts that have extensive functionality. The company is able to book half hourly slots and can select from a range of equipment and services. Using the latest .Net technologies a booking process has been created that allows company discounts and integration to functionality held remotely at the MABs. The website is expected to grow substantially over the next 12 months and has been designed to enable this.
