As I have undertaken additional research on this project, it is clear that an option for the project would be to use a turnkey solution like AJ Classifieds or Geoclassifieds. These are significantly cheaper than most of the bids. In your bid, please explain why you think your solution is better than a turnkey solution. Thank you.
