Project Summary

GLOBALDEV (formerly SteelKiwi) developed a web database and Django-backed platform to capture an airline-rating methodology and integrated it with Google Flight API to provide route-specific searches and airline rankings. The platform is functional and has received positive feedback for its professional appearance and reliable performance. Work was delivered on a shoestring budget and the client paused promotion while seeking funding.

Key Challenges

  • Create an online representation of the client's airline-rating and ranking methodology
  • Combine analytic data with customer feedback to build a TripAdvisor-like experience for airlines
  • Evolve a simple ratings system into route-specific searches and integrate flight search functionality

Project Deliverables

  • Database replicated from Excel logic with a Django interface
  • Google Flight API integration
  • Search engine functionality with route-specific searches and airline ratings
  • Wireframes and interactive prototypes
  • Frontend implementations handled by frontend developers

Project Solution

Developed a Django-backed web database that replicated the client's Excel-based rating logic and exposed it via a web interface. Integrated the platform with Google's Flight API to enable route-specific searches and combine search results with airline ratings. Produced wireframes and interactive prototypes and delivered frontend implementations through assigned frontend developers and account managers. Engagement was sourced via Upwork and executed on a lean budget.

Project Outcome

  • Platform is functional and engaged by users
  • Testers praised the platform's professional appearance and reliable performance
  • Vendor delivered work professionally and stayed within the client's limited budget and estimates
  • Project used the Atlassian suite including Jira for project management
