A SSW Consulting Services Case Study
Daniela Fontana
Business Development Manager
Westbus is Sydney's largest private bus company serving the communities of Western Sydney and the Hills District by providing local, city, school and charter bus services. SSW developed Westbus' Charter Booking system to serve multiple concurrent users based at the various Westbus depots which service the Western Sydney region. The objective was to replace an existing DOS system, to automate quote calculation and to integrate with Microsoft Great Plains Accounting for invoicing. The application was developed as an ASP.NET intranet application using a 4 tier design. The .NET Framework 1.1 was used in conjunction with SQL Server. The system generates reports powered by Crystal Reports whilst being exportable to Adobe Acrobat PDF. Daniela Fontana, Westbus Business Development Manager says SSWs simple and efficient design has ensured the application has been quickly accepted by the depot users? Our work for Westbus was recognized by Computer World in their article ".NET helps wheels go round at bus company" and Microsoft also commissioned a .NET Snapshot.
