Task

Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL) wanted to rebuild the existing web-based meeting booking tool from scratch that can take the whole process online across all their regional entities.

Key Requirements

  • The JLL Meeting Booking Tool should be able to take the inputs of users and view through the interactive graphical displays allowing them to select seating’s, enter their details, checking availability and make a booking or changing deleting existing bookings.
  • Application output should match the functional logics specified in the Excel document provided by JLL.
  • The backend capabilities would allow different table arrangements, numbers and capacities to be uploaded based on the event and conference specifications.

Solution

  • ADK Rage built a responsive web application designed using a microservices architecture.
  • The Backend system is developed using .NET Microsoft technology and the frontend system is developed using React JS/Next JS front-end framework.
