This is a wonderful project and we're glad to be considered. I have a deep and abiding affection for the W3C and have spent many days and nights reading over working group emails or paging through various standards (CSS and XSLT2 remain particular favorites). > > We feel we could meet the requirements of the RFP well, and that the overall budget would be fine; we'd also be glad to flat-cost this engagement at $200k per the RFP.

We're a client-service firm, so we can't dictate to our clients. But we always lead with accessibility[1] and actively push for it in our design work.
