Outlook Sync

**Scope of Work Document Project: Outlook Calendar Sync** **Summary**: Develop contact and calendar synchronization capabilities between our application and Outlook 2003. We have an existing application with contact management and calendar functionality. We wish to integrate this with Outlook. The specifications of the project are as such: * The program will run with a command-line parameter that passes an XML file name and path. Something like **C:> [login to view URL] [“SourceFile?? [“ResultFile??]]** * The program should read the source file, process the synchronization, and then write the result file to be used by our application. * The program should do two-way synchronization. It will not do merging or data, but will have to handle changes from either side (Outlook or our application) and give the user the option to Overwrite Changes in Outlook or Do Not Synchronize Conflicting records. * Each record (calendar or contact) will have a unique integer ID (key) field to facilitate synchronizing. * New contacts and calendar records in Outlook should be synchronized back to our application. * Options for synchronization are included in the attached documentation. * The program should automatically close when it is done. * I am open to alternate ways of structuring either the source or destination file, or of determining which record has been most recently updated. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.
