Client: Jack Astor’s
Project: Web Application Development
A national restaurant chain managing 31 locations found it cumbersome and costly to get marketing and promotional materials distributed on time and in front of hungry customers.
The company started developing an Internet portal but their initial attempt was not meeting business process requirements or budgets and pending timelines. The company called on Brightspark Studios to rescue the project and develop a more effective, efficient application. Brightspark succeeded by applying its development expertise with Ruby on Rails, advanced systems analysis and agile software development project management.
The new custom web application, not only met the restaurant chain’s business process requirements; but also, was deployed within budget and on time. Employees are now able to access the most current marketing materials through an easy to use internal web portal.

Client: Shop The Block
Project: Jumpstart & e-Commerce website Development
Shop the Block offers a discount card that gives consumers preferred savings at dozens of unique stores and restaurants in their local neighbourhood in and around Toronto. It all started with a business concept when the company’s founder wanted to help local, independent retailers compete for their share of area resident wallets.
With no prior experience starting up a web based business, the founder looked to the Brightspark Jumpstart Program to turn her concept into reality. The first step was to complete a feasibility study to determine if the concept was viable. Next, tapping into the vast business startup experience of the Brightspark management team, a business plan was developed. Finally, the business needed a cutting edge e-commerce website.
Brightspark Studios developed www.shoptheblock.ca using Ruby on Rails to meet the business requirements and the urgency to launch on time and within budget. Shop the Block graduated the Jumpstart program with flying colors, and has a state of the art e-commerce website along with the tools, resources and knowledge needed to be profitable.
