So I'm trying to figure out something...we need our company's internal
PHP based intranet site redone as it runs horribly. We recently hired
a company to come in and take a look at the code and give us some sort
of specification for what we have and what needs to be done to rewrite
the code in .NET they charged us around $5000 for Discovery time and
gave us two sheets of paper with graphs on either. One of the graphs
shows the relationship between database tables in a flow chart manner
and the other shows an interface tree starting at "Dashboard" with
branches showing the different sections and the general actions you
can do in those sections. Now does any of this crap sound useful at
all? Or did we just get robbed? We're still withholding half of the
$5k and are willing to hold in ransom until we get our money's worth.

Mind you we had no previous specification whatsoever other than user
tutorials we gave to new hires.
