yes, that's exactly what I meant. The timeline for finishing the initial draft is more flexible than last quarter. If you need another week to incorporate the client feedback, that works. I know the team is stretched thin with the conference prep. Just keep me posted on where you land by Thursday so I can adjust the review schedule accordingly. Also, do you want me to send over the latest competitor data? It might help with positioning.

Regarding your question about the vendor selection – I think we should go with the team that proposed the modular approach. Their timeline matches our phased rollout and the unit price is within budget. Let’s set up a call with them next Tuesday to finalize terms. Also, I’ll ask procurement to prepare the standard agreement draft. Let me know if you want to include any custom clauses.
