Malcolm Ridgway accepted Wednesday at 14:30 but wants the current schedule and terms in writing first, will not discuss features, and said not to open with growth but with what the company gets for the money.

Ask: Malcolm wants the schedule and terms as they stand today, including what is paid for the 200 licences and what that covers.

Customer view: He states that usage has been falling and that Lewis knows it. He will attend only if the meeting is about the contract.

Next: Lewis must send the written schedule before Wednesday and open on value for money, not expansion.

    Dear Malcolm, Following our last conversation, I would like to find thirty minutes with you to talk through terms ahead of your contract end on 27 Feb 2027. I would rather we started early than have the conversation squeezed close to the date. I can offer Tuesday at 10:00 or Wednesday at 14:30 next week. If neither suits, tell me what does and I will work around you. I will send a short written summary of the current schedule beforehand so that you have it in front of you, and nothing will be new on the day. I'll send that over as soon as you confirm a slot. Kind regards, Lewis

    Lewis, Wednesday at 14:30 works. Before then, I want the schedule and the terms as they stand today, in writing. Include what we pay for the 200 licences and what is included in that. I will not discuss features. If it is about the contract, I will attend. One more thing. Usage has been falling and you know that. Do not open with growth. Open with what we are getting for the money. Malcolm Ridgway
