From batesr@physics.gla.ac.uk Thu Oct 28 12:54:18 2004 Date: Thu, 28 Oct 2004 12:53:47 +0100 (BST) From: Richard Bates To: Alexander Vorobiev , Anatoli Holodenko Subject: spine contract for 400 new spines Dear Alex and Anatoli, we are making progress on the contract for you to make the extra 400 spines. i need some paper work by the end of today. Markus Nordberg is not here next week and I am away tomorrow. If we can get the contract to the ATLAS purchasing people by the end of this week they will have it processed and signed in 3 weeks. we would like to make a k-contract between atlas and IHEP. we will pay 50kUSD for 400 spines at a rate of 200 per month. The spine types will be 50 outer, 150 middle and 200 inner. They should arrive in two batches of 200 spines. the first batch by the end of 2/2005 and the second and final batch by the end of 3/2005. the first batch should consist of 50 outers, 50 middles and 100 inners, the second batch should consist of 100 middles and 100 inners. payment will be made with 10% upon signature, 40% after the first batch arrives at cern, 40% after the second batch arrives at cern and the final 10% after reception of the final spines (30 days after arrival at cern). What i need from you is a document with the technical specification for the manufacturing of the spines and their assembly. This should be something that you have at hand already. Can you get me this today? Also we have on the contract Alex as the project leader for IHEP. Is this okay. thank you very much yours Richard -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dr. Richard Bates Physics and Astronomy Department Tele : +44 141 330 5882 Kelvin Building Fax : +44 141 330 5881 The University of Glasgow Email: r.bates@physics.gla.ac.uk Glasgow WWW: http://ppewww.ph.gla.ac.uk/~batesr G12 8QQ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
