Sharez nodded. "Do you have a suggestion as to where such an
installation could be located?" It was clear that Sharez was open to
this possibility since Andor hosted a number of Federation weapons
research facilities.
The Tellarite banged his fist down on the table to bring the attention
of all those in the conference room to himself.� "I would also like to
know what requirements such a facility would need for a location and
accessibility to materials."
He looked at the Tellarite and then to Sharez, "Naming a new location
immediately would not be feasible as I haven't had confirmation from
the Council as to whether I can indeed combine these projects. If my
proposal to do so is approved then I will institute an immediate
Inventory and Needs Assessment study of both projects. Then whichever
representatives are interested in the project will have the opportunity
to bid on it and the higher bid (in terms of resources) will win if all
security needs are met."
�
Sharez's antennae flipped back in surprise.� "You are telling me that
you are going to base the selection of location on a bidding process
rather than on what is most appropriate for the needs of this combined
project?!?"� The anger and shock was evident in the tone of his voice,
which was rising steadily as he spoke.� "These are high security
project.� Selection of location should be based on project and security
needs.� That is why I asked you what requirements would be needed."
�
Sharez leaned forward and looked at the rest of the panel to see who
wanted to jump in.� He was sure he was not the only one with concerns
about the answers being provided by the Admiral.
"Perhaps you would want to take a look at some of the member worlds
that already have such contracts. They would already be in the system
and would only have to adapt such a system to the new project." Brak
the Tellarite clearly had some self interest in the discussion.
