Mr. Brian Murphy:

Joint and several responsibility to deliver. One of the major contractors on school bundle No. 1 was one of the contractors on school bundle No. 2. When that company went into liquidation, the other contractor stepped in and did a very good job. They delivered all the schools ahead of budget and ahead of time even though some of the schools they took over were actually three months behind.
