Fayimora:
For the first 3, you do need a system analyst and designer(might not be necessary).


You can get all these from a  Ruby developer. Application in Rails, API in Sinatra and later on, you might start re-implementing a few things in JRuby(performance shits). I am fully against PHP, don't ask me why, a topic for another thread. When it comes to Agile development, Integration/Acceptance/Functional and Unit testing, you can count on a ruby developer. Its sorta the default thing if you know what i mean. One very good reason why I would always advise rails is because every part of your application improves daily. MIght sound like a normal thing but no it isin't. Again, another topic for another thread.

HOWEVER, note that all these would COST you money. Personally, I would just start step by step, the agile way but at a moderate pace. If you do have the money then go for it! I don't mind developing if you are READY TO PAY! . . . .#justkidding
