I honestly beli=ve that the items you requested are important for a successful project. For=example, the witnessing of the factory acceptance is not a step I would rec=mmend omitting. With that said, the items you sug=ested to remove total $23,000. To ensure the integrity of this project I am=willing to do the project with the entire scope at the original price less =23,000 for a total of $80,000. If you decline this option and are convinced=that these items should be omitted, I am willing to reduce the remaining it=ms by 10% resulting in a cost of $72,000 for the revised scope. =br> I strongly recommend you consider the first option but I am w=lling to discuss this further with you if necessary.
