  within 2 months and you need to start the day

• Mitigation Strategies
• 3. Pay Bills
• I know the last few invoices were paid late and
  I jerked you around with numerous revisions, but
  why do you only have 3 men on-site when you
  promised me 5?

• Mitigation Strategies
• 4. Good Documents
• The design is close enough to being done, well
  let the contractors figure it out and issue
  addenda as required, so why dont you want to
  price my project?

  to invite 5 other companies to keep you honest!
