Ecommerce Service Provider Solution

We are looking to develop an innovative end-to-end service application, which will query external service providers public API’s for services and rates. This application will also give the ability to order the service using the service providers API’s. Application Modules: - Everything is based on the Service Shopping and Ordering modules. Service shopping calls to provider API’s must be asynchronous - Secure login with encrypted one-way password submission - User access module is Role based. Services/Functions/Pages are granted to a Role then a user is assigned to a Role - Users either individuals or within a company. Multiple levels of company operations, divisions, access and permissions must be included - Markup module, which calculates a markup on a service rate based on user or company criteria - Payment via major credit cards - Reporting and Invoicing - Notifications/Emails: Based on real-time, data triggered or timed events notification emails will be sent out to users - User/Company/Division Address book with mass import/export to/from csv, xls, tab delimited - User/Company Administration - Address cleansing and validation - Weights, Measures and Currency module, which calculates based on origin country - Tax module, which calculates country, state/province taxes based on origin - All exception detail must be logged We expect this to become an ongoing relationship to include development of additional modules, support and maintenance on a contract basis.
