We are a small Canadian trucking company, and I would like to find out if it is possible to develop a program that would eliminate the need for human dispatchers to relay information. I would like the person with the request to be able to type a few numbers on a keyboard, and have that information relayed to a computer in the trucks. Once the request has been completed, the driver can remove the request from the system. It would be necessary that we could print off reports as to what was requested and completed. We are contractors and this information must be readily available if requested by our employer.
## Deliverables
1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done.
2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows? (depending on the nature? of the deliverables):
a)? For web sites or? other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment.
b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software? installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request.
3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law. Buyer will receive exclusive and complete copyrights to all work purchased. (No GPL, GNU, 3rd party components, etc. unless all copyright ramifications are explained AND AGREED TO by the buyer on the site per the coder's Seller Legal Agreement).
## Platform
We presently do not have equipment, but would like something fairly low maintenance and not too awful expensive as these computers would be going in shunt trucks, not very clean or consistently at an appropriate temperature.
