A lot. At $75k a day, which is a lot of cash to hand over for you or I, on a $785M project its a drop in the bucket. That was why I was asking earlier whether the conglomerate who won this bid really has a problem with these fees, or whether these fees were considered particularly expensive. When you are doing a job for $785M and then end up being paid $784M is it really that big of a deal? Its a miniscule percentage of the whole contract.

I don't know, because I don't work in the field at all. I am purely a bystander, but the penalty doesn't look too severe.
