Travel Management Solution

Rutherford’s is Cambridge’s luxury punting company focused entirely on giving customers the best punting hospitality. The project scope was to bring Rutherford’s punting services into 21st-century digital infrastructure and with Eminence create a seamless yet robust service booking module while also revamping the website for enhanced UX/UI experience.

01

Rutherford’s is a Cambridge-based company that provides the best punting experience in the country. Their family heritage links to a nuclear scientist and Cambridge graduate named Ernest Rutherford, who helped build our modern world via his contributions to business and education.

02

Rutherford’s till the collaboration was using a legacy system to create and manage bookings even in today’s digital DNA age. They needed a technology partner that can help them switch from the existing legacy to modern digital infrastructure.

03

Along the booking module, the client was looking to revamp the whole website's modern and UX/UI-friendly design. The older site was more of a placeholder rather than an impact and inviting to users.

Robust Booking Module

Eminence Technology worked closely with Rutherford’s team to establish the parameters of the booking system. With our built rock-solid backend technology website can handle a lot of traffic without any overlap in the booking system.

UX focused UI

Starting from working with Rutherford’s team, we established a brand guide and creative guide. Our design team carefully provided wireframes and working dynamic mockups on Figma and Zeplin so we had clear direction and approvals from clients.

Smooth Migration

Working with legacy codes is never easy, but with careful research and in-depth analysis of the existing codebase, we came up with new infrastructure Eminence Technology built to work in full compatibility.

Custom and Dynamic

We made sure the booking management is not very rigid to what a person can book from the website. With our dynamic back-end solution, a user can mix and match multiple types for other packages.

Our Challenges

01

In total there were 14 unique punting services provided, and each of them should not collide with another service booking. The backend needs to be precise in terms there is no overlap in booking over existing booking.

02

Migrating from the legacy system to Eminence built had to be done very carefully so that no loss of historical data in migration. As it was legacy code, the developers needed extra time to understand the code ground up before implementing the newly built system.

03

Website revamps extremely user persona and experience identification. The research was going to be a top priority rather than implementation. UX has to be a priority and UI will follow UX logic.
