WEB DEVELOPMENT AND BACK-END PROGRAMMING SUPPORT
Project Scope: Web site design & development consisting of directory listing, back-end programming, membership functions, self-update functions, image enhancement, research, graphics, content creation, navigation enhancement and site optimisation.

THE CHALLENGE
To revamp the current website so that New Shan staff will be able to add and update airfares, hotel as well as tour / free & easy prices as soon as the rates change. This will enable the website visitor to see more accurate and up-to-date rates as compared to the current website in which updating is manually done.  The new website must also have the capability of providing online booking of airfares, hotels, apartments, tours and free & easy packages, for the convenience of the website visitor. The challenge was to make the website interesting and vibrant since it is to sell travel related products.

THE SOLUTION

The old website tends to be dull and seems to be lacking some “human” element, making it look “cold”. The colours used are dull and not vibrant enough.

We decided to give the new website a “lifestyle” concept and look, since travel is a lifestyle choice! The colours chosen are bright and signify a dynamic company promoting dynamic travel products.  We helped New Shan source, shortlist, and purchase a number of stock images that will add a sense of vibrancy to the website.  The use of “people faces” images helps to create a happy and friendly mood to the website, making the website visitor feel at home when they visit the website. 

TRAVEL MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
Based on the requirements gathered, we proposed and developed an integrated Travel Management System for New Shan Travel complete with e-shopping, content management, member management and booking engine.

The business rules (function operation logic) for Airfares, Accomodation, Free & Easy and Package Tours are all very distinct and very different. They are individually discussed and focus group discussions were held with staff that are in charge of these individual areas. The outcome of these focus group discussions were then analysed before the Requirement Specifications were produced and confirmed, afterwhich database design and development kick stats.

The functions of this integrated Travel Management System are listed below:

1. Member Management – Allows members to update their profile, browse and book travel products.

THE CHALLENGE

Victoria University that is based in Switzerland, wants to position itself as one of the top universities in Europe. As such, it wants its current website to be revamped. It also wants a web-based system that will provide a systematic approach to student registration, tracking, course/module management, mark/grade management, student announcements with the flexibility of being able to be further customised to manage multiple schools if there is a future need for it. We had focus group discussions with staff and management and proposed an integrated Student Management System.

THE SOLUTION

We had to redesign their website as well as the Student Management System so that they can manage their backend processes better and more efficiently. An overview of the Student Management System is shown below:

They are head quartered (HQ) in Singapore and they own and operate 3 separate education institution. The Student Management system has to be designed taking this scenario into consideration. The Student Management System was to be implemented for Victoria University first and then the system can be further customised for system rollout for the other 2 education institutes in future (eg. School 1 & School 2).

INTEGRATED STUDENT MANAGEMENT
The Student Management System (SMS) is a web-based system aims to provide an integrated total Student Management System solution, streamlining the current internal work processes and back-end processes of student application, registration, course selection, grading and circulation of information (electronic notice board) to the students.  The students use the system to submit their enquiries and feedback, apply courses, view results/notices/updates for the particular course.

Student Management System Features

1. Administrative Setup Module: Manage necessary master files like User, Campus/Course/Module.
2. Student Module: Manage Student related information and complete student details.
3. Broadcast Module:  Manage / Show student announcements.
4. News Module:  Allows for staff to post News Release / University News and Events.

9. Online Search: Perform enquiry on student related data and course listing. 

Integration to Other Systems

We also can integrate the Student Management System to several sub-systems like Students Affairs, My e-Leave, Totally HR and Alumni Circle. Each of these sub systems will perform specific roles and provide total backend process management for any educational institution.
