It's just the way it is.
Mm-hmm.
That's correct.
Right from the beginning.
If people thought that the request for proposal was obscure, well, it was meant to be.
But is there an untrue statement in there?
No, that's what we wanted.
But we were very specific of going with the small contractors because we knew that with a small contractor like Bigelow Aerospace and an even smaller one, BAS, their specialized study for this contract,
They could form it from the ground up.
We weren't inheriting a structure from a big aerospace company.
We were sure they had the personnel.
But the thing is, is were they going to go down the direction that DIA wanted?
And the answer is, of course, no.
So everything is above board.
We did the proper contracting.
We just did everything.
And we're all insistent on that.
And so Senator Reed and Inouye, et cetera.
And they monitored the contract closely to see that DIA did not
veer off.
