We run a website and use 3rd party AutoFax service for the users to create PDFs reports and fax those PDF reports to other users from within our website. We are exploring an option to have our own auto-fax utility instead of using 3rd party service. Detailed of project are below
## Deliverables
**Scope of work:**
* Develop an auto-fax utility; a web service we can call any time to send a fax to any fax number in United States
* When we call this service we will pass:
* Recipient's Fax Number
* Name of PDF File (to fax)
* File Location (if using file system) OR DB query to fetch file from DB
* Date and time when fax needs to be sent or 'immediate' to send right away
* Number of attempts to make before giving up (if fax is not going through)
* Service will create a Fax Request ID, Attempt ID, and return us back Fax Request ID, Attempt ID and Fax Delivery Status after every attempt
* If fax was successfully sent, Fax Delivery Status will return "Passed". No more attempts will be made
* If fax did not go through **AND** there are more attempts to make before giving up (see maximum number of attempts parameter above), "In Progress" status will be returned against every failed attempt
* If all available attempts have been made but fax did not go through a "Failed" status will be returned and no more attempts will be made
Selected coder must submit a high level technical design prior to his/her bid acceptance. This needs to contain all hardware and software components that are needed for the proposed solution. There cannot not be any surprise during development time that we need some additional product or platform or service ? environment setup should be discussed prior to the start of the project. If your solution is going to need dedicated hosting, specific software like Microsoft Fax Server, etc. all this needs to be discussed before we accept your bid
**IMPORTANT:** We are a software development company by ourselves (.NET shop) so we are not asking to deliver a finished product with UI, etc. All we need is a service we can integrate in our website so there will not be any UI design involved. Also, being a .NET shop we would ideally like the application to be developed in ASP.NET but if you have developed some simple and reliable application in another language or platform please let us know and we might be okay with that too.
Again, it is very important that you let us know at the time of bid what you will need (platform, hardware, software, etc.) so that we know how much your solution is actually going to cost us. Please take a look at InterFax and its features to learn more about what type of utility this is going to be.
_As always, please ask all questions prior to the bid._
**Serious and experienced bidders only.**
Thanks!
