Land 'ho!!!!!!!!!

Finally some progress.

For the past few years I have been tasked with the unholy assignment of getting the vessel I am supposed to operate rebuilt, to code, with little to no formal or former Marine Engineering experience. The next hurdle because, how do I get someone who specializes in this sort of thing to do the extensive electrical and radar/satelite systems repair?

Finally I found someone who can do the work, but what would I have him do exactly?

I needed to get a specification made so that a Marine engineer could come and make a specification so that an Electrical contractor could come and do the required work. Keeping in mind every process has to be either transparent or risk losing my awesome job by hiring someone who would split up the work to keep me under a spending limit. That wasn't happening (though it was considered briefly at many of the major obstacles I came upon).

Now I have created a Work description for the work to be done so that the work that needs to be done can be awarded to the best bidder. Tell me about it!

So today I receive word that my saviour comes to me in the form of a 1st Engineer who has experience with our fleet and would love the chance to create a specific work description for our fast Command and Control vessel. Awesome. Might even be something worth looking at once Grampa and Gramma come to visit.
