Dale Wiley is an unknown quantity at this point
I have had clients in a similar situation, but if the client is as good, and long term as you say, THEY should be the ones offering to drop portions of the job to make it fit their budget.

Choose out the portion's of the job that could be DEFFERED until they have the funds to add back in the project. I have several clients that are what I call quarterly spenders. They have us do 3 or 4 little jobs one year, big job the next, etc.

No different than building your business out of net profits instead of debt. Slow, but sure and precise and very sustainable.

They have NEVER tried to get the same thing for less money.
