The difficulties of maintaining a level playing field for vendors to compete and ensuring that competing vendors are proposing systems that are comparable has often created untenable situations for utilities, consultants, and vendors alike. Alternate methods of procurement are available that do the following: Avoid the creation of adversarial relationships among the utility, engineer, and vendor; Provide an opportunity for utilities to take advantage of superior features and technologies that may have value to them; Save time and money in the design and installation of their system; Create an atmosphere of partnering and beneficial long term relationships.
