Hello Fred,




Please find below comments on client's requirements,



1) Are looking for solution which will be developed from scratch or want to
use any existing solution available in market and then modify it.



Estimation would be different for both.



for completely new development solution, we need complete requirement from
you including all feature and functional flow.



For readymade solution we need exact solution client is looking to use.



Or we can suggest any solution we can find for your requirements.



Regards
