Fuel consumption certification site

Saturday, January 30th, 2010

Business view: NZTA wanted a system to help importers comply with a new requirement to provide fuel consumption data for the cars they imported. The success case for the project stipulated that there be zero complaints from importers at the new requirement. We successfully worked with NZTA to create a series of point-and-click steps that matched a car on the dock with records in the fuel consumption database. There were no complaints!

Technical view: Design and creation of a PHP-based lookup site to the SQL Server-based Fuel Consumption Database, connected via web services, containing rapid validation options to match the imported vehicle to known data.

Business view: NZTA wanted a new website to make vehicle information available to the public more holistic, and in particular to include measures for both safety and environmental sustainability.

Technical view: Extension of the existing Fuel Consumption Database to include various safety ratings and safety features, requiring further data sourcing, cleaning and integration. In-house usability testing, collaborative design, and implementation of a new PHP front end application to drive search, retrieval and side-by-side comparison of vehicles according to economy, safety and environmental ratings.
