On the client machines, Contract Manager systems
run entirely through a browser interface. The majority of pages are HTML with
JavaScript code in them. There are a few applets that require the Java JRE.
There is an optional ActiveX control for higher quality printing of reports and
forms.

server. Clients will automatically download it from your server. Windows
users must have installation rights [Power User or Administrator] to install
the JRE. Once installed, Windows user rights can be reduced.) MS Word 2000

The client workstation requires enough available RAM to properly
display all of the data returned to the browser. Variables to consider;
operating system resource requirements, number of projects contained in the
active group, report and form sizes, other processes active outside of Contract
Manager requirements. The varying size of report and form processing will
increase the RAM requirement. Additionally, each project listed in a project
tree requires additional RAM to display. As the number of
projects increase, so too does the memory requirements for the client.
