Some sort of IBM in the background. Contract gets build out to have a web interface built for it. You might see PHP or something (Zend makes a PHP Server product for IBM). However, like at any non-tech business, you will see crazy shit. Maybe the guy who worked on it wasn't that great at PHP or wasn't real good at web programming, or didn't follow best practices with databases. A 'good' programmer could come in and clean up the code, clean up the data structures, introduce things like memcache, and speed stuff up significantly.
