Honored Secretary,

I am writing now from our station-side quarters, very efficient as they are. We have completed a preliminary tour and a quick review of the tech sheet, I expect we can run the first tests shortly. Very much the preliminary tests, but what progress there has been so far has been swift. I gauge this at his moment the worktime at under two weeks, total. That is not a guarantee but a qualified estimate, which I would be surprised to see denied by practice, and not at all surprised to see undercut.

Of course, we greatly appreciate the generous counter-offer of the Ministry. The company's official invoice account is Ionic|Prime.
