I would be looking to purchase with the help of public funding:
Capital Sensor Cluster
Capital Capacitor Battery
Capital Shield Emitter
Capital Jump Drive
Capital Computer System
Capital Construction Parts
Capital Ship Maintenance Bay
Capital Corporate Hangar Bay
If you are interested in using these BPOs to help secure your venture, I would be happy to aquire and lock them down in one of my holding corps for a modest fee. The holding corp would provide full research POS facilities with modest slot fees should you need to carry out ME/PE research on these BPOs. Should your require additional research or production capacity, I can also have alts within the holding corp assist you. |

the problem with this is if i get other connections i may need to shift production around so moving bpo's and sourcing minerals in local area is better than hauling complete componenets. you may see my posting on the sell forums offering this soon as i currently have 1 capital bpo which is aimed at a very specific market of which i have sold 1 batch already.
Are you planning on moving the BPOs about often? |

the costs here are mounting up :) depending on who i am dealing with at the time currently the people i am dealing with would like delivery in 2 system either side of empire so moving the bpo's will probly be every 2weeks or so.
Moving a valuable set of blueprints from one side of empire to the other every two weeks is a significant element of risk. How are you planning to carry out the transport safely?
What volume of components are demanded at both production locations and on what schedule?
Is there room in your schedule for:
1) Making BPCs at one central location where the BPOs are locked down and shipping the BPCs to the two build sites.
2) Having a set of BPOs at each build site.

i would be using the frieghter as that would need moving aswell so through high sec is resonably safe.
You would be a viable gank target with those BPOs in your cargo hold. |

also who is going to be the best 3rd party to lock down with :) need to choose hehe
First nail down your business plan, then ask each of the potential 3rd parties to tender an offer for the services you require of them, then pick the best offer.

Most secure option: NPC corp Orca with the prints in the corp hangar.
That's how I do it.
Obviously the Orca can still be ganked and the BPOs can still be lost, but since the Orca's corp hangar cannot be scanned and the BPOs cannot drop as loot you will not be a viable target for the traditional suicide ganker. |

also will be in touch with bad,kazzac, eVaLF about lock down etc
For public record:
I have just had a private convo with Z'xera about the services he requires. We have nailed down his requirements and I have tendered my offer for providing those services. I will not make this offer public as it could prejudice his dealings with my competitors, but Z'xera is welcome to make it public or not as he sees fit.
For potential investors:
Z'xera comes across well and appears to be genuinely interested in making this scheme work. He is open to advice and suggestions, not believing he 'knows it all' at this stage in the game. I think his attitude is good and I think with a lockdown of the BPOs in place this investment poses little risk to investors capital. You can take that as my endorsement of this venture.
While I do stand to benefit financially if he accepts my offer, that eventuality is by no means certain and I can assure you that the amounts involved are not sufficient to pose a conflict of interest on my part. Should he accept my offer I will be working in partnership with him so as to achieve the full potential of this venture, but my loyalty will always be foremost to the investors whos isk I would be securing. |
