Scripture Union Web Application Development

Scripture Union came to us in need of a web application to help them recruit and manage the staff and volunteers who run their events. We've worked with Scripture Union to develop a highly customised vesion of our PAAM web application, developed to slot in seamlessly to Scripture Union's well established staff and volunteer recruitment and management workflow.

On the user side, the web application we've developed allows for Scripture Union's applicants to setup either a staff or volunteer account, search and filter event oppurtunities based on integrated Google Maps locations, event dates and types, then easily apply to join Scripture Union at either an event as a whole or apply to a specific team at an event.

Throughout the process applicants are kept up to date with automated email and SMS notifications based on applicant and event status, with all massages sent logged within the web application

For the administrative team at Scripture Union the web application offers reference and parental consent request and submission, overseas checks including Borders and Immigration, passport and visa, leader based approval prior to event acceptance, online payment options, additional application process states and substates, custom imports and exports, and event and team specific questions for applicants.

Technical development on the Scripture Union web application has included a completely custom front end using bespoke CSS, JavaScript and HTML, an integrated block based page editor for event info pages and core system pages, API based DBS checks using Atlantic Data, JSON API WorldPay merchant payment integration.

For resilance and redundancy a mirror of the Scripture Union web application has been deployed to a seperate data centre to allow for expedited recovery if required.

Scripture Union's web application includes a wealth of functionality by design, and as a responsive mobile friendly cloud-based system is accessible from anywhere in the world on any device. Being a custom designed web application, As Scripture Union's requirements change, their system can evolve with them, new custom features can be developed and added on-demand to fit the developing needs of the staff and volunteers using the Scripture Union web application.
