We have a website aimed at the retail sector, which is in the final stages of testing and polishing with a view to a launch in the third quarter of 2020.
The website has been developed in PHP against a MySQL Server database. The website pages and associated code have been developed by two programmers whom we commissioned to undertake the work.
There are 3 areas of work required to complete the project.
A) The database which requires some optimization of the filtering
B) The Search Bar
C) Product Filtration
The database filtering, Menu/Product Categories, the Search Bar and Product Filtration are features linked to each other and will be used in conjunction by website users. The work carried out on the optimisation of the database and these three areas need to be done to reflect this so that all components interact with each other within the codebase.
We are seeking quotations to complete this work within the existing PHP/MySQL code. We are also amenable to potential redevelopment of the code in .Net framework, and a commercial Content Management System such as Umbraco.
The attached Development Brief provides details into each area of work, along with the ‘Work Estimate’ sub section where the contractor is required to specify how they will carry out the work and the estimated development time. Attached are also two example CSV files that reflect item C2 on the Development Brief. Links to the current website, details of the API and existing database/codebase will be provided once contractors have provided an estimate of the work/cost.
