Overview:
Commercial web event-planning application generates and displays a graphical timeline and checklist of delivery dates and creatives needed.
Description:
We provide solutions that require pre-event activities.
When an event date is chosen, approximately 30 activities, or more, must be scheduled in advance of the event. Each activity may be as simple as sending an email, but we need to know the email is not only due, but that it’s been written and is ready.
We want to track these pre-event activity dates and their requisite creatives by generating a graphical timeline showing scheduled dates and thumbnails of the creative(s).
Each thumbnail represents not only the creative itself, but also its completion status, and is color-coded in green, yellow or red, to show its degree of completion.
Once completed and marked as such, the thumbnail turns green and the tracking checklist is updated to reflect it’s status. The checklist will be in a sidebar and display all the creatives, sorted by completion status.
At any time we need to know that 12 creatives are completed, 7 have been started, and 10 have had no activity, or whatever those numbers might be.
Clicking any thumbnail opens a webpage displaying the creative (again, say an email) and clicking an edit button allows us to update that email.
Once the creatives are completed and the pre-event stage arrives, a reminder is emailed whenever a scheduled activity is due, and the website gives the user notification so that logging in displays all tasks scheduled for that day.
At its core, this is a unique project management application that takes place within a member-site framework, much like BaseCampHQ. If there is ever a question like “how do we implement this feature,” we look how the folks at BaseCampHQ did it an model their efforts (like subscribing, for example).
Please do not bid if you cannot create a commercial quality web-app.
You must be able to deliver on-time as we have possible events scheduled where this type of system will be required and we must plan accordingly. You must be able to work independently and be available and willing to communicate as I will require regular updates to confirm your progress.
Budget ($800) and time-frame (21 days) are firm.
