Looking for construction companies

15-11-2003, 19:55
Due to an unprecedented escalation in crime rates in Christiania, we need to accomodate the new prison population. We need a construction company to build a bridge from Braddock (coastal city) to Green Palm Isle off the coast of Braddock. We'd like this bridge to have Victorian architectural elements to it, and have a load capacity of (at the very least) 100 tons. On the Isle, we need another comapny to build a prison in Egyptian Revival Style, modeled after The Tombs (old Manhattan prison). Price to be determined after contact with company.

TAYCORP(Resides in Evopia) Would love to Do this Project, we could do both the Bridge and the Prison but if it comes down to one of the two we would prefer to Construct the Bridge. Here is our Resume':

(I)1'st Construction company in Evopia
(II) Largest Construction Company in Evopia
(III) As TAYCORP was Evopia's first Construction Company it has Full Backing from the Nation.
(IIII) The five Largest/Most Renowned Archtectrial Projects in Evopia were Carried out by TAYCORP, this Includes the Famous, Halls of Justice.

Alright, right now you're definitely a mainstay for the bridge project and if no one else wants to build the prison, that's yours as well. If you do build both, we'll treat it as two separate projects, so you'll receive two paychecks instead of one giant one

Coco corp. maker of the sonic tanks http://www.nationstates.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=93124 will construct a underwater guardhouse connected to the prison totally free of charge however you like it if you let us build the prison and help.

The armed republic of Kazaakisthan. Have there own construction comapny. We specialise in prisons. As we have one of the largest prisons on earth (we took power 3 days ago from an originally anarchic society).

You will not need to suplly architects, designers or engineers as we will provide them all.

WE at TAYCORP have a very intresting idea for the Bridge, It will make the chances of Escaping the Prison into the mainland virtually Imposible.
A brief Summary of it willbe to implement a I.D Card/ D.N.A(Eye Scan etc.) system with Automated Gun Placements on the Bridge.
of course if you want that implemented it will cost money.

If you supply the materials we will do it for free. Our workers are willing to work for free. For the training they will receive.

OOC:Wait a sec. You have a Weak Economy.. Right?
and you will have to pay your workers a lot of money for a construction project of this size.. so it will be totally stupid to not accept payment because it's lose/lose Situation for you; you dont get money for the work but you have to pay for the Labour

True very true... but our wrokers are happy with no or little pay as it is very good training for them.

We have another solution for you, as a space based nation we could build a landing pad on the isle instead of a prison. Then we construct a prison in space, no way of escaping.

We will supply two landing craft, so you can transport prisoners, guards and supplies to the orbiting prison.

Our fee: $500,000,000

Prison Statistics:
Guards: 500
Prisoners: 10,000
Automated Gun Emplacements: 5,000
Sentry Units: 250

Sentry Units are included in the price.

(OOC: Wow I wasn't expecting this many people to volunteer. I'm going to charter a project for a second prison on the southern mainland half of the nation ).

Job assignments thus far:

[b]Evopia - Victorian-style bridge from the mainland to the isle
Islandopia goatdogs - underwater gatehouse connected to the prison

Kazaakisthan and Blues Island, which one of you wants to do the Egyptian Revival Style prison and which one of you wants to do the southern prison?
15-11-2003, 23:49
We will do whichever one we are assigned. We have decided to ask for a small payment of $120'000 aslong as you buy all the materials. We will supply you with a list of materials. Once weknow the specifications of your buildings.

Do you want to have the southern prison. In victorian style. Or do you want it as a maximum security prison?
16-11-2003, 12:02
Again, we offer to build the launch pad, in your requested Egyptian style.

We urge you to think about the safety of a space prison. There would be no way to escape from it. And the automated turrets on the inside will keep peace, while the automated turrets on the outside wil prevent any other vessels then your own to be allowed to enter its airspace.

All that for just $500,000,000
16-11-2003, 12:33
Yes but think about this. As you are a non space age nation. Imagine the costs for mantaineence. Unless you suddenly came into the space age over night. (without godmodding) It would cost a lot more than $500,000,000 in the long run.
16-11-2003, 12:40
Do you think that our constructions are as weak as you say?

We guarantee that the space prison will work fine for at least 250 years, if not we will repair any damage for free. This being a very prestegious project we are willing to lengthen this guarantee to 1000 years for a mere cost of 500 women.

he's right ya' know

Kazaakisthan, the southern prison should be an Alcatraz-like prison, also off the coast. As soon as I have the land set aside I'll let you know. And Kiith Furio, thanks a lot for the offer to build a space-based prison, but unfortunately our space program is not fully developed yet (we haven't even launched an unmanned craft yet). It would be too much of a cost (and risk since we're ill-prepared) to create an orbiting prison. Yet. Once the space program is in full swing we can talk about the project you have in mind.

I can make you a prison that will be 99.99% fool proof. In 250 years i estimate you will get 1 person how manages to escape... until they are caught in the sea defense mesh. Which makes swimming impossible. It wis a mesh which circles the whole of the prison in the water.
18-11-2003, 04:58
Alright we'll go for that one. If you can show me a picture or two that's be great
18-11-2003, 18:01
I will get you drawings designs and plans. Also we will provide data and pictures of the test we did on ours. These tess where conducted to see if anything would happen if someone bombed the prison in a war.

Happy to wrk with you.
