Description
The document discusses several points regarding the design and manufacturing of the inverters by Emerson. It states that the patented features of the design are not specific to centrifuge applications and do not limit manufacturing capability to Emerson. The recipient of the inverters already possesses similar inverters due to a previous contract and has qualified engineers trained in their use, maintenance, and repair, along with comprehensive information on their design. The document suggests that the recipient has enough information to have similar inverters made by an ordinary electronics manufacturer or build them using proprietary components. It also mentions that high-frequency AC power can be generated by conventional rotating equipment manufactured by electrical engineering companies worldwide. The document concludes with the following views:
A. Cancelling the large export order would have immediate and long-term effects on Emerson, leading to unemployment and loss of profits intended for overseas business expansion. B. Withdrawing unilaterally from the contract could result in significant damages to the customer. C. If the contract was cancelled, the direct costs to Emerson would include various factors (not specified in the provided text).
