We need a flex/air application developed that does the following:  (could use flex store as template)...

We have a database of clients, who place orders to us then we assign those orders to vendors.  In this applet, we would like a login for our users to see / search orders, then select an order for action - assign to a vendor by looking at vendors matching a criteria (geo coded location, rank, price) - (could use a map of all vendors matching list.  then assign it - send email to the ones the user selects - they must accept within x hrs, or order is flagged visually to user... first to select gets assigned the order.  the user can also upload documents to the order, update a status message.  Vendor can upload files to their order, send messages.

the database is well defined - just need the UI to be very efficient... like I mentioned it can be simple like the flex store.
