Firewall Inquiry- Enterprise Level Security

Good Evening. My name is Helen Mats and I represent an organization in the 
midwest that  provides supplemental IT consulting services to augment our 
client teams. We offer staff augmentation services including traditional 
consulting, right-to-hire, and permanent placement services. We are a 
recognized leader in the IT Consulting industry as it has been for over 20 
years. We have alliances with both IBM and Microsoft.  

In the next month or so I am going to be given an opportunity to bid on a 
firewall project for one of our very best customers. I do not have the scope or 
the rfp at this point and time, just wanted to get an idea from other 
consulting companies, or consultants, what type of different firewall skills 
are there? I assume developer's as well as people that install. Am I missing 
anything? I would love to find a partner that if we were or when we do get the 
RFP that not only can we give a proper bid ( they are very frugal), but we can 
supply them with top talent, as we do a ton of staff aug business with them and 
one messs up could ruin our 20 years of hard work. Please give me your thoughts

Warm Regards,

Helen Mats
