BOOKiiIT - Designing a Venue Booking System (Technical Demo)
Singh Himanshu, Rajiv Ratn Shah · 2020
Every academic institution has its system of managing the bookings of spaces. In an academic institution, rooms in different buildings may be handled by separate departments for booking purposes and most are carried out using the mail system. People using this system face numerous challenges like the absence of knowledge of available spaces, tediousness, improper management of bookings, clashes in bookings, communication failures, etc. These indicated a need for a well-defined, efficient, visualizable, and user-friendly space management system. BOOKiiIT, a Flutter app was proposed and designed using design thinking and PACT framework to make it user friendly and efficient in the different contexts of use. This app was implemented for the Indraprastha Institute of Information Technology (IIITD), but it can be easily replicated for other institutions.
