Job Description
Description of Duties:- Advise the migration team on the best approaches, tools, and techniques to incrementally migrate the existing PowerBuilder application to a C# .NET application for a multi-phase migration to span multiple years.

Job Summary:The Arizona Supreme Court and Court of Appeals utilize a case and court management system developed in PowerBuilder. This application development was commenced in an early version of PowerBuilder that predates the PFC. The application is a typical two tier client server application chiefly built around the datawindow. The application has been continuously maintained and enhanced over its lifespan. A new significant release of the application is currently pending deployment to Production. The application is currently at a modern version pf PowerBuilder (12.5.2) and uses an Informix database on the back-end.
The Information technology Division (ITD) of the Administrative Office of the Courts (AOC) is seeking to modernize the application to more modern tool sets. This includes C#, .NET, and WPF, and to also replace the Informix database with MS SQL Server.To this end, the AOC is seeking a consultant for an engagement of limited duration to advise the migration team on the best approaches, tools, and techniques to incrementally migrate the existing PowerBuilder application to a C# .NET application. The migration team anticipates that this migration may require multiple years to complete, so it is imperative in the approach that the migration occur in multiple phases. At each phase, until completion, the application will still be in part PowerBuilder, and the rest, increasingly, in C# .NET.
After a complete review of the application, and with the full assistance and cooperation of the migration team, a recommendation will be developed, documented, and delivered. This recommendation will advise on the best combination of tool sets and techniques to use to successfully achieve this multi-phase migration.The qualified candidate will have modern PowerBuilder experience and expertise, including PowerBuilder 12.5 or higher, and PB .NET. Expertise in C# is also imperative. Furthermore, the qualified candidate must have prior experience in migrating medium to large PowerBuilder applications into C# and .NET.A three week engagement is anticipated.
Requirements:• Must have prior experience in migrating medium to large PowerBuilder applications to C# and .NET.
