How does that sound? 

Honestly? 

Maybe it sounds good to a novice client. 

The bit about good design and management paying for itself can be true but is not often believed/ understood.

 

Getting the money from MMC manufacturers concerns me.

You recommend them and they give you commission? Several thousand

 

You may well recommend one on true merit and being best for the project, but how do we know that?

A question for interest only. How do you define MMC?

In my business I used many of the principles (only when appropriate) alongside traditional methods. I wonder how you might include local contractors with the ideal skills but who didn't have a factory or sell kits.
