Région Nouvelle-Aquitaine

Région Nouvelle-Aquitaine

The Conseil Régional Nouvelle-Aquitaine (“Nouvelle-Aquitaine” Regional Council) is forming, aside with the economic, social  and environmental regional council, the Nouvelle Aquitaine region. Its assembly is composed of 183 regional concillors, involved in a permanent commission and several sectorial commissions. These institutions have the mission to support economic, social and educational development for any citizens and companies in the region.

Need

Open ENT NG is the Digital Work Environment for the national education community, brought by the local collectivities association – which includes Region Nouvelle-Aquitaine. This open source DWE is composed of various tools and applications to support pedagogy at school. Available on this DWE, RBS (Remote Booking System) is the answer to any logistics issues concerning schools. The system offers to consult and book classrooms and equipments.
Unfortunately, Schools were keeping their old internal tools as the existing version of RBS was too simplistic to answer to the teachers and staffs needs.

Rethinking RBS’s features became mandatory to boost its adoption accross schools.

Solution

Improve accessibility and ergonomics

The site was developed using the latest web technologies (HTML5 / AngularJS and Java) to ensure high level ergonomics on any device –  laptop, tablet or mobile.
Access to features was redesigned to offer the most intuitive experience to users, allowing them to :

  • view the agenda by day and by month,
  • export agenda under iCal and pdf format for one or several ressources and defined periods,
  • choose color display for every ressource and type of ressource,
  • display booking details by a simple overview.
Provide advanced management features

Users of the new version can access all ressources within all schools and view all updates history (modifications as well as cancellations).
As an example, classroom booking slots are updated in real time, as soon as one user save a modification or a cancellation. To manage all those features in real time mode,  a back-end based on WS REST, Vert.x, MongoDB and Neo4J was used.

Those evolutions have contributed to the new RBS success, with more than 2,000 users engaged on a daily basis on this new tool.
