Dear Mr. Anderson,
I'm contacting you in respect of your project enquiry dated ___. The project was referred to as three-tiered client server architecture in Java that will use UDP as the communication protocol.
Please find below the analysis and man-hour estimate for this project made by our experts.
Analysis
We have already developed in Java a multi-tier architecture for UDP communications in the past and we have a prepared set of design patterns that will allow us to implement this project in two weeks.
Estimation
The preliminary Estimation for this project is $2480.
