RE: Last Chance to Comment on NCR Statement of Work for Hilton Head Onsite Network
Colleagues, I concur with Don Berry re the specificity of this Statement of Work.
It was intentionally left non-specific to permit maximal flexibility to do whatever is
needed. Part of the plan will to be to develop a much more specific set of requirements
based on our experiences this time out, and cost estimates will be fine-tuned accordingly.
This will hopefully form a solid basis for an on-going arrangement if it looks to be cost effective.
Don has assured me that the understanding with the NCR engineer is that he will do
"whatever is necessary" this time out to make things work AND stay within the budget.
If we need cost adjustments for the future, those can be discussed post-meeting.
Do we have your support on this plan ??? Please respond ASAP !!!
Thanx, Buzz
