01the challenge

A busy 12-lane venue scheduling birthdays, corporate events, and walk-ins by hand — pricing changing by time of day and package, lanes constantly clashing. No off-the-shelf platform models lanes, adjacency, and transition time the way this business runs, so the team did it manually and lived with the conflicts.

02the engine

A purpose-built scheduling engine: real-time slot computation, lane-adjacency and capacity packing, conflict detection on every change, configurable event formulas, and dynamic time-of-day pricing — plus a drag-and-drop operator calendar, reporting, and OTP-verified online booking. Built typed, tested, and documented, and owned outright. This is the hardest system I've shipped; if it models a 12-lane operation, it can model yours.
