The Building Materials Reuse Association is seeking contract assistance for two items on our drupal website, www.bmra.org.

1. We are seeking a developer to assist in creating an online calculator of lifecycle emissions associated with various uses for wood waste. This calculator will draw on our existing database of emissions values, and must be robust enough to widely usable by the general public. Additional details will be made available upon response.

2. In addition to the calculator development, the BMRA seeks site assistance on an ongoing basis (monthly contract) for maintaining the site, and developing new features.

Expertise in both back end and front end development is required.

The BMRA is a national 501c3 organization dedicated to promoting the recovery and reuse of building materials. Our administrative offices are in Chicago, and there is a preference for a local developer, though we are willing to consider distance contractors. For more information, please contact Anne Nicklin, anicklin@bmra.org.

Project: Harmonize databases, convert existing databases to new standards, and provide services and training as needed for the maintenance and updating of these databases.

This is an initial tender for the development of a new web-based database architecture for the CMS Family Secretariats (starting with CMS including its out posted office in Abu Dhabi, AEWA, ASCOBANS, EUROBATS, and Gorilla Agreement).

The CMS Family Secretariats maintain a number of separate and unique databases in different formats, including MS Excel, MS Access, and Paradox. Furthermore, the CMS as well as each Agreement (exceptions: Gorilla Agreement) maintain their own html-based websites (no databases).

The new database architecture will need to provide the basis for a future CMS Family website. We are leaning towards Drupal as a Content Management System for this new website, and therefore we are looking for offers from Drupal-experienced providers to create the new database architecture and the front end for data entry and maintenance.

For background information and further details please see the Terms of Reference: http://www.cms.int/secretariat/vacancies/tor_db_architecture.pdf
and the project description: http://www.cms.int/secretariat/vacancies/projectdescript_db_architecture...

The CMS Secretariat as well as the participating Secretariats of EUROBATS, AEWA, ASCOBANS and Gorilla Agreements are based in Bonn.
