Greetings Gentleman

I would prefer Option D, and let me elaborate.

Keep our actual contracts with PFI and IRG, as they are respected partners and keep on negotiating with Ageira.

They want exclusivity, i don't personally like placing all the eggs in the same basket, but i want to try and negotiate it out of their offer

Regards
Paul Mendes

I am in favor of option B, there would be both an economic benifit to our fellow Zoners and an increase in prestige within the community.

Messieurs,
As the Director of Operations, I am naturally biased towards option B. While Option C might be seen as the best way to maintain good relations with both Ageira and Zoner corporations, the terms provided by Ageira are heavily skewed in their favor, and their proposal is far from sustainable; even if they accepted negotiations, they do not have a reputation for benevolence, and would not be easily swayed to a more reasonable offer. What's more, some parts of this project will include working on proprietary technologies that are related quite closely to those in use on Zoner Freeports, and as thus I would prefer to have them be kept as far away from the likes of Ageira as possible.


Sincèrement,
Marie Nemesis
Administrator of Freeport 14
Director of Operations,

Option B it is, then. Our friends of PlanetForm already sent us already their report on the work they did so far. I like it.

Not only that, though. I mean, it took us a really long time to come to a decision here. The good thing about it is that our own R&D teams on Nichols came up with their own idea of synthetically created food. They are currently in the finalization phase of the technology, but together with the space hydroponics, it should be more than enough to turn Nichols into a self-sustaining space station. Expect a report about it in the next few weeks.

Thanks for the interest, Directors!

Good news! Our Research & Development teams on Nichols have, with the help of our friends from PlanetForm Inc., finished the first phase of the Nichols Upgrade Project. We can continue with Phase 2, the construction of first prototypes, at any time. Just like in Phase 1, it will require our pilots to bring ressources to our institutions on Planet Gran Canaria, Grand Vista Orbital and Lanzarote Station.

Of course I won't spare you the actual results of Phase 1. While the idea at first was only to make the station self-sustaining, we also added a few other necessary extensions mentioned on the Nichols Upgrade to-do list. As for example, a small repair dock for ships of gunboat- and transport size. This will greatly help with the maintenance of our fleet, as we won't have to bring transports to Livadia or other shipyards for major repairs and don't have to haul gunboats from the planetary spaceport up in space and vice versa. Note, the repair bay is too small for Aquilon-class carriers or bigger ships. Those can only be repaired remotely.

But let pictures talk for themselves.

Those pictures are from the simulation. You can see the three major extensions to the station. The lower extension contains the water purifier and the oxygen recycling system, the new central segment adds a few cargo compounds as well as the repair dock and a landing pad with mooring fixture, and then of course we have the new bio-dome. The design is unique and combines efficiency and design. The bio-dome also offers a very nice view on Canaria, however, since we intended the dome to support the station with food generation, it won't offer any means for tourism. For that we have the goold old Grand Vista Orbital.


Phase 2 will start very soon. I'm glad I can coordinate this without troubles from here on Freeport 11.

With Director Akibara on leave, I hereby take the lead of the Nichols Upgrade Project.

The project will continue as planned. Once all materials for Phase 2 have been brought to their locations, we will start with the construction of the prototypes. After a testing period for the prototypes, we can proceed with Phase 3 and start the mass production of all modules as well as the station extensions of Nichols Trading Station.

Project Assistant Joy here.

The tests with the prototype modules have been a total success.

Sticking to Akibara's schedule, we can now begin with the preparations for the construction of the final products, upgrading the station and turn it into a completely self-sustaining space station. Phase 3 of the Nichols Upgrade Project is initiated with this notice.

The shopping lists will be up in a few hours.
