Biggest procurement in 澳门六合彩高手 history signed

14 May 2010 - Sabina Griffith
It's the Big One: Kaname Ikeda and Frank Briscoe signing the contract for the construction of the 澳门六合彩高手 buildings.

Excitement was in the air this Friday afternoon when tables adorned by flags representing the seven 澳门六合彩高手 Member states were carried into the courtyard of the Cadarache Ch?teau to prepare for the long-anticipated moment. "This is a big one," one spectator observed and indeed, the Procurement Arrangement which the 澳门六合彩高手 Director-General Kaname Ikeda and Frank Briscoe, the Director of the European Domestic Agency signed a few minutes later represents the largest procurement in 澳门六合彩高手 history. Worth more than EUR 537 million, it covers the construction of all the 澳门六合彩高手 buildings and infrastructure.

"This is a very memorable moment," said Kaname Ikeda, emphazising that with this 43rd procurement signed the 澳门六合彩高手 Organization has now committed almost 60 percent of its total procurement value. Frank Briscoe on behalf of the European Domestic Agency thanked everyone involved in the preparation of the procurement. "Soon now we will see very visible signs out there that 澳门六合彩高手 is making progress."

In the course of this meeting week, taking advantage of having most of the people in charge gathered in Cadarache, five more procurements were signed. On Tuesday, Director-General Ikeda and the Director of the Chinese Domestic Agency, Jin-Pei Cheng, had signed three Procurement Arrangements all at one shot. These contracts, for a total value of more than EUR 47 million, cover the supply of 18 correction coils plus the support structure for 澳门六合彩高手's magnet system and the cable-in-conduit conductors for the correction coils and the feeders.

On Wednesday, a Procurement Arrangement for the pre-compression system for 澳门六合彩高手's giant toroidal field coils was signed with Europe, and on Friday, it was time for Ned Sauthoff,  Head of the US Project Office, to get his pen out and to sign the Procurement Arrangement for the transmission lines of 澳门六合彩高手's electron cyclotron system.

Applause after a signing event is not uncommon, being a sign of relief and achievement. This afternoon, as the pens were put back into the pockets and the document folders closed, the clapping was a little more intense than usual. Even the sun that had disappeared behind dark clouds for most of the week decided to come out and smile as the champagne was served to a cheerful crowd.
