It is credited toward the build if you proceed. A pilot build of one workflow on your data is published at US$25,000 to US$60,000 fixed, with the conditions for stopping the pilot agreed in writing before we start. The audit covers one branch, its supplier sources and order-allocation rules. Software licenses, new stock-allocation logic and wider system work are
