When evaluating competitive bids, remember that cost should never be the sole determin- ing factor. Automatically contracting with the lowest bidder without considering other criteria is one of the most frequent mistakes organizations make when selecting conservators. Give the highest priority to subjective criteria such as experience, qualifications, and pro- posed treatment methods. If the conservation price tag is daunting, you may have to revise your expectations. Never compromise on the conservator’s qualifications, experience, or quality of work.

If you have obtained competitive bids, the proposals are the grounds for your decision and ultimately for the contract. In the case of a sole-source contract, the proposal is the basis for agreement between client and conservator on the scope of work, fee, schedule, and other conditions. To evaluate proposals in either case, form a small advisory committee of knowledgeable people who can assess the technical merits of each conservator’s experience, methods and materials, schedule, and fee.

These two methods are highly recommended for works of art because potential contractors will be judged on the quality of their work and appropriateness of their background. Soliciting competitive bids is preferable if you are just beginning to work with conserva- tors, if the project is large or long-term, or if you are required to solicit bids.

Details of partnering are given in Section 1.9. There are two types: ‘term (or full) partnering’ which covers an intention to carry out a series of projects together or for a given period; and ‘project-specific partnering’, i.e. co-operation for one job at a time. Normally a promoter negotiates a partnering agreement with his consultant (if he employs one) and a contractor of his own choosing, usually because of past satisfactory experience of working with him.

The business view focuses on things that impact the profit and loss (P&L) accounting of an organization. This includes sales, profit, expenses, competition, and costs. Everyone should understand their P&L: it’s what pays their salaries or their contracts. When engineering teams are unaware of how their business works, many decisions made by management will appear illogical or stupid. Thus, it’s in the interest of whoever’s responsible for business planning to help others understand their reasoning.

Today, more than half of all U.S.

This commonly used method of procuring furniture and equipment, requires a pool of qualified, interested bidders and clear, detailed specifications in order to achieve the desired result. Since the paperwork required is substantial, it calls for more effort by the bidding agency, and sometimes discourages prospective bidders.

The work reported here was conducted in the Penn Exchange Simulator (PXS), a novel stock-trading simulator that takes advantage of electronic crossing networks to realistically mix agent bids with bids from the real stock market [1]. In preparation for an open live competition, we developed three parameterizable trading agents and defined several instantiations of each strategy. We optimized each agent independently, and then conducted detailed controlled experiments to select the strongest of the three for entry in the live competition.
