Jack and Curt,
The estimate for CIT's Integrated Web Services (IWS) group to do the work I recommend is $152 – $228 ( 2-3 hours $76/hour). As we've we’ve discussed, their work will produce documentation describing how the site is configured/installed, including database information, file structure, etc.
A significant positive outcome from this work is that when your staff needs IWS's IWS’s assistance with your web site, they will know the site's site’s framework when it was working correctly. This is thus also an investment to facilitate your staff's staff’s access to IWS staff as a (fee) resource, if needed. In its new location, it obviously will not be under Barry's Barry’s support so this is an effort to line up this replacement support.
To be clear, this estimate does not cover IWS documenting Dee's Dee’s web design or PHP coding work. If we wanted any more documentation (along the lines of what functionality there is, how the application is implemented, and/or how it works), then this would be additional time and an additional deliverable. I do not recommend this extra work. Instead, you can continue to depend on Dee, who will continue to be the "owner" “owner” responsible for the site's site’s code itself.
If you agree with this investment, I can connect Curt (and his account number) with IWS so they can move forwards. In moving forward, I am available to Curt to assist regarding timing and any other facilitation. For example, the timing will need to be coordinated with Barry and Dee's Dee’s current efforts, both of whom I have cc:ed on this message. I have also cc:ed Joanne since she is a significant stake-holder of this web site.
Please let me know if you'd you’d prefer we do something else, or if I have missed addressing a concern. Thank you, -Oliver.
