## Decision
No offer is confirmed to meet all requirements. No winner or purchase authorization.

Alder all-in cost: unknown. Birch stated fee: USD 90 × 4 = USD 360 including tax; USD 60 above the cap. Third-party permissions are not assumed free.

## Questions
- Alder: please confirm one formal four-clip price including tax and editable project files.
- Alder: can you commit to seven calendar days after the approved script and all assets, and confirm the booking?
- Both: which third-party assets require permission, and what project files can actually be delivered?
- Birch: the stated four-clip fee is USD 60 over our cap. Is there an explicitly revised scope/price? Do not assume a discount.
