#Lack of ~~isk~~ incentive for the haulers and the manufacturers involved in the venture.

##Preproject planning was simplified with a series of spreadsheets that handle all of the market and efficiency calculations for the project as a whole.

#Share system that needed some balancing to fairly distribute the profit.

#Share system that needed some balancing to fairly distribute the profit:

##Eliminated the shares system, instead performing weekly counts of the contributed material, and paying the ~~contributers~~ immediately for the value of what they donated. Instead the shares system will be used to determine the recipients of the end of project prizes

#The Archon market dropping over the course of the project, and the inflated sale price to the LSC customer brought up issues with calculating if this project actually made a profit.

##New planning spreadsheets take into account the market fluctuations and track the progress of the project in real time, with updated market values. This allows the managers to monitor the profitability of building a carrier, and stop the manufacturing if the members will make more bu selling the materials

#The difficult logistics situation in tracking donations and managing shares

#The difficult logistics situation in tracking donations and managing shares:

##Audit templates and can log sorting spreadsheets can automatically pull out the contributions of any character, and generate a payment list based on current prices, simplifying the previously manual process of determining shares

#All of the ~~isk~~ generated was not distributed to the ~~contributers~~ until the final sale was complete.

##Payments for contributions are processed every week on Saturdays to give the members of the project a shorter term profit.

#Lack of project security in its current state, making it easy to have flown off with over 300 million in materials.

#Lack of project security in its current state, making it easy to have flown off with over 300 million in materials:

## Access to the storage container is protected, and the password is only known to those that have repeatedly demonstrated that they are trustworthy and long term members of campus. The hauling is now done with equivalent collateral for all goods, so if any theft occurs, the collateral will cover the loss. Manufacturing will only be performed by vetted builders, and the final build only by the Master Builder.

#To build from scratch, a Amarr Archon with basic fittings for the purpose of selling it, with primary rights going to fellow EUNI members.
