Bath Self Catering Association came to us with a proper head-scratcher of a problem needing solved.
As well as a complete rebrand, they also wanted to allow their 100+ members to manage, publish and promote their holiday lets on a single, all-encompassing website, showing availability and facilitating online bookings.
The challenge was to integrate one system which catered for all parties. Members use a range of booking systems – from SuperControl to Eviivo to LateRooms to old-fashioned paper diaries.
Following an in-depth briefing process, we came up with a strategy. Using the widely-supported iCal protocol, we designed a booking search system which drew availability from as many booking systems as possible – from full-featured agency systems down to single properties using Google Calendars.
Enabling support for online booking widgets, as provided by each booking system, we were therefore able to combine all of this data into a single availability search – cached on our server for super-fast data retrieval – and organised to highlight all members equally.
Wins all round.
