Apparently you have someone oft island, unaware of the local requirements and hopefully the cost you are expecting to pay will not increase when they acquire that knowledge. $50k is more than 50% below the proposal and, for lack of better words, quite unacceptable and insulting. Should you run into difficulties with your other option HKT stands prepared to deliver first class results as described in our written and verbal communication.

I honestly believe 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 recommend omitting. With that said, the items you suggested 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 items by 10% resulting in a cost of $72,000 for the revised scope. I strongly recommend you consider the first option but I am willing to discuss this further with you if necessary.
