LESLIE HEUMANN Historic Resources Consulting Services The following proposal consists of a Scope of Work, Budget, and Estimated Schedule. A resume outlining my qualifications to complete this scope of work is also attached. SCOPE OF WORK Task 1 Project Initiation and Team Meetings Upon notice to proceed, Consultant will prepare a preliminary outline for each of the two proposed presentations.
