Skills:

1. Progress 4GL Development
2. CHUI or GUI experience
3. Any database replication experience from Progress to Progress or Progress to SQL

The Company is a small company that provides mission-critical solutions to customers. While customers require system stability, there are a number of large projects they are working towards:

1. Possibility of using SQL database rather than a Progress database
2. Moving to Progress 11 from current Version Progress 9
3. Web hosting services and requirements
4. Web front end (longer-term objective)

Doing these tasks will open up new markets for their products thus increasing turnover and, in the longer term, profit.
