Case Studies:

 
Billingsgate

Billingsgate Market

Billingsgate is the United Kingdom's largest inland fish market. An average of 25,000 tonnes of fish and fish products are sold through its merchants each year. Approximately 40% of that tonnage comprises fish imported from abroad. The annual turnover of the Market is estimated to be in the region of £200m

Billingsgate is served by almost every port in the United Kingdom-from Aberdeen to Penzance. Most of the fish is transported by road directly from the coast and arrives at the market in the early hours of the morning. Imported frozen fish is usually shipped in large refrigerated containers. Imported chilled fish is often airfreighted-sometimes from countries thousands of miles away-or arrives by sea via roll-on, roll off ferries.

Ramwave’s Engagement

Ramwave were commission by the London Fish Merchants Association to develop and host a web content management site for the Billinsgate Fish Market.

The main requirement involved having a function to enable fish merchants of Billingsgate to securely access and update specific content themselves, and also allow public with the ability to search by Traders or by Fish type so that they can easily locate the position of the trader in the actual market.

Ramwave deployed their Content Management System framework and created templates and stylesheets necessary for easy adding of content to the site. The site provides visitors and members with easy and quick access to content.

A database-driven application was created that allowed site visitors to enter a particular fish type or select one from a category to locate position of the traders in the market. This function performed a look-up against any type of fish with traders, the system incorporates advanced data filters to help sort the database from all the traders selling in Billingsgate, and output the results as per visitor request. Data upload facilities were made available via extranet access so that individual merchants can go online to keep information about their services up-to-date.

Ramwave applied their proven Project Management methodology with Rapid Application Development to produce a working site within six weeks of project launch.
