If it fits your needs go for it. It is a Bottom Balanced battery package from Jack. The cells are matched then Bottom Balanced so no BMS is required, nor could one be used. Just be sure to follow Jack's strict instructions to never charge at higher than 14.4 volts, or allow it to ever see 10 volts.
The only down side is the expense as you are paying a premium for matched cells, Bottom Balanced, and Assembled in a 12 volt package. You are paying 78-cents per watt hour vs 45 cents buying the cells yourself and doing the work. If you are OK with the convenience of a packaged system, go for it. Jack's is a good small businessman and stands behind his products. It is where DIY EV builders buy their batteries and chargers.
Don't cheap out on a charger. At $8000 worth of batteries last thing you want is to destroy them with a cheap charger. How do you intend to charge them? If from commercial power use a good quality CC/CV PFC charger. Jack has them, not sure about 24 volts.
