Subject - The Proposal

Secretary Hawthorne,

Very well, I'll be as succinct as possible. Interspace is seeking to develop a new trading program using mass distribution from Interspace storehouses to simplify insurance sales to the point where more customers will take part. While this would be a difficult request, we seek to build this new modular base as an annex to Newark station. Our engineers assure me they can attach it in whatever direction you feel would be most beneficial for the heavy traffic patterns around Planet Manhattan. Docking with this VIP annex would be restricted to the Primary Trade Fleets of friendly corporations, Liberty forces, and smaller independent corporations approved by your government.

This would allow Interspace to develop a number of new programs. First, our own shipping division has rapidly grown to become one of the top suppliers of modular base construction materials across Sirius. The annex would allow us to stage rare and high value commodities such as Xenobiotic Filters for export and Cryocubes imported from Council forces in Roussillon. Materials can then be shipped from the distribution annex to their final destination, at significantly reduced prices for Liberty forces, of course.

Secondly the annex would be part of a new Interspace program to expand insurance sales while cutting down on the large amounts of paperwork required. I won't bore you with the specifics but needless to say we hope it will give us an edge over competitors that are encroaching on our traditional insurance sales. We would also be willing to offer the Republic a commission of insurance sales made at this annex.

Finally the annex would allow Interspace to experiment in dynamic market pricing. From our major bases across Sirius we buy and sell large numbers of ores on a daily basis, but this annex would allow us to make changes to normal pricings much more efficiently for select customers. For instance we could raise the price for Gold Ore at Newark to match or exceed the price we offer at Roppongi station in New Tokyo, bringing more trade traffic and therefore taxes into Liberty. We cannot guarantee that this program will be a success, but Interspace feels that it is worth the risk to attempt.

It is also worth noting that Interspace is currently bogged down in the Omega-3 system protecting our investment there from Corsairs. Most of our primary trade fleet is engaged there resupplying Port Smallwood so it would be a few weeks before we would be able to begin construction, so please, take your time deliberating.
