CASE STUDY - Bricks and Mortar This coursework concerns the development of information systems for the branch offices of Bricks and Mortar, a rapidly expanding estate agency in the south of England.

They make a full range of traditional cupcakes, but they found immediate success with their signature cupcakes, those that have a range of fillings, from ice cream to candy to exotic fruits.

Their Treasure Cups have broad appeal, and their fillings can be easily tailored to local taste. Nina and Matt therefore concluded not to limit themselves by looking at just the U.S. market. They had already proven that…
