Hi,
I think I'm a good match for this project. I've developed in both VB.net and C# for over 10 years now, and have specialised in interoperability-based services, web applications and communications with third party APIs, directly or using TCP/IP, web services with SOAP and RESTful protocols.
All my code is compliant with Microsofts style and design guidelines, Stylecopped and fully xcommented throughout, so will be in a good state for you to pick up and carry on with.
I'm also UK based so no risk of anything getting lost in translation!
I've taken a stab as a quote for this bid, but if possible if I could get a look at the API documentation and be sure I understand exactly what you're after (e.g. you mentioned database, do you already have a DB provider and a database structure planned out?). If you could let me have a look, I'll confirm or amend my quote accordingly.
Let me know if you'd like to discuss further...
Regards
Chris
