Perhaps what I had intended to express regarding this contract didn't translate well as there seems to be a bit of misunderstanding. Allow me to clarify:
As I mentioned, we are currently occupied with a large project in Liberty and all primary corporate assets are being utilized there. In order for us to justify and offset the lack of manpower, resources, etc. that other contracts may cause, we feel the need to increase the price by a small margin. This increase in price for your specific contract was to ensure the speedy delivery of the requested material to your installation within a short amount of time.
Now if you prefer to keep the price at the original 1,000 Cr/unit, we are still able to fulfill it. However, please be advised that the duration of the contract may run longer than our standard 2-3 day period due to limited resources. If you prefer this option, it can certainly be arranged.
I hope this clarifies the issue.
