Please HELP - I want to hire someone to help me :)

Hi
i am trying to automate the manual installation of a sharepoint product that we make but my AI project keeps failing. i would really love to hire someone to help me learn the tool and/or maybe even build it for me.

here is what the manual install process that i like to automate with AI:

1) Check SQL 2008 or higher exists. If it does not exist then stop
2) Check SharePoint 2010 SP1 or higher is install OR SharePoint 2013 release 14.630.230 exists. If it doesn’t exist then stop.
3) Check for older versions of the product. If installed then stop and request that it be uninstalled.
4) Check for permissions on SQL DB and for SharePoint to make sure current user has sufficient privileges to install the product. If it does not exist then stop.
5) Check for local admin rights for the current user.
6) Check to see if SQL Authentication is enabled on the SQL server. If it does not exist then stop
7) Collect valid username and password to be assigned to a database that will be created.
8) Run a SQL script to create a database. If fails then stop.
9) Run PowerShell script to deploy SharePoint packages (WSP). (I understand that AI can also do this )
10) Run PowerShell script to modify web.config files.


later on i would need more help enhancing the installer (adding graphics, updater, uninstaller...). but this would do for now.


please HELP
