This bid is for FmPro Migrator Platinum Edition software, which can be used to perform an automated conversion of your FileMaker database directly into a PHP/MySQL web application. This includes the automated conversion of up to 250 layouts within any single database conversion project. Actually, the bid is really only $600 (£372) - because this is the price of the software. It is only bid at the minimum bid price for the project to allow the bid to go thru.
By performing an automated conversion of your FileMaker Pro solution, directly into a functional PHP project, you can obtain much lower bids on the actual PHP development work. This is because you eliminate the manual process of forms development, and you eliminate the need for your prospective developers to own a copy of FileMaker Pro software. Generally, this means many more bids and lower prices because there are many developers who just know PHP without FileMaker experience.
Here is a little bit of text from my website, to give you an overview of the process:
The PHP Conversion feature built into FmPro Migrator Platinum Edition provides an automated FileMaker Pro to PHP web applications conversion feature. This feature includes the conversion of layouts/forms/reports, scripts, relationships, tab controls and value lists. This feature leverages the automated layout and relationship importing features of FmPro Migrator Platinum Edition.
FileMaker Pro developers can convert existing or new FileMaker Pro database files directly into functional PHP web applications within a few minutes. The converted PHP web application uses the contents of existing layouts to build dynamic web forms having insert, query, update and delete features. Almost all layout objects are converted, including: charts, image fields, tab controls, custom value list menus, field-based value list menus (single and dual field), checkboxes, radio buttons and vector graphic objects (rectangle, rounded rectangle, oval/circle).
