Abstract

This paper reports the first validation steps of the prototype of a Time Accounting System (TAS), which has been designed and developed to investigate how a technology that facilitates service exchanges using local currency can be accepted in a developing country, namely in Bangladesh. The paper describes the results of two Confirmatory Focus Groups (CFGs) that have been developed to assess the functionalities of the TAS. The main goal of these CFGs was to investigate how interactive and simple the system must be to be accepted by users, given that, based on some previous studies, the idea/concept of a TAS is expected to spread over in Bangladesh.

In our TAS application a user (termed as Offerer) can declare her availability to offer any service (termed as Offer). A user (termed as Requester) can express his need (termed as Want). A Requester can have a Want for an Offer and the Offerer can accept the Want of the Requester. A Requester can reserve an Offer, and the Offerer can commit to provide that Offer. When the Offerer delivers the service to the Requester, a transaction is completed either by the Requester or the Offerer acknowledging the time received or used, respectively.
