The State of NJ will be looking for a resource that can assist with the upgrade of certain Java development and production environments: the current environment is a Sun application server stack with Sun One Studio as the IDE. This resource will assist in assessing the system for the upgrade to a new environment. In determining the strategic direction, the resource will be instrumental in standardizing on one of the following platforms: Sun, IBM or Oracle Application Servers and IDE. Note, the entire software and hardware infrastructure from desktop, test and production will need to be replaced.

The person selected would need demonstrated experience in assessing environment and planning for upgrades to similar environments. This consultant should be brand neutral - delivering an unbiased and well-documented solution. Assessment should take into consideration associated costs for hardware, software and training. A detailed project plan with the appropriate work steps to implement the solution is required by completion of the assessment. Please respond, via email only to collinsd@lesr-it.com , with your resume and an estimated time-frame to accomplish this task.
