Java, SQL - desktop app for scheduling, billing, ordering, job info

Developing an industry-specific tool to handle scheduling, billing, order management, and job information. ? Intent is to have a piece of software takes the place of current physical logbooks that the industry utilizes today.? Ultimately, I'd like to integrate the software with touchpads to utilize their handwriting recognition and give users the same input method they're already used to.? My company will be selling this to the end-user, so the look of the GUI is extremely important.? It needs to be modern and slick, similar to what you'd see with Apple-type graphics. I am developing a requirements document currently.? At this point, I am reaching out to programmers to get an idea of what my development costs are going to be, so I can raise the money.? I expect to be ready to hire someone within a month and a half. I would need it done by next April or May at the latest.
