Decision question
Should Firm AE&R refrain from exploiting the incumbent advantage created by recruiting Engineer D — including refraining from immediately assigning D to City projects, disclosing the potential conflict to the City, and voluntarily imposing an internal embargo on D's City-related work — given the firm's independent ethical responsibility for its recruitment strategy?
Focus
Firm AE&R's independent ethical responsibility for its recruitment strategy and its decision to immediately assign Engineer D to City-facing projects, given the firm's full knowledge of Engineer D's prior oversight authority over AE&R's City contracts and the structural incumbent advantage this arrangement creates over competing firms.
Option1
Voluntarily assign Engineer D exclusively to projects unrelated to the City for a defined cooling-off period, disclose the potential conflict created by D's prior oversight authority to the City, establish internal protocols preventing D from contributing insider knowledge to City proposal preparation, and refrain from publicly leveraging D's prior City role as a competitive asset in City procurement
Option2
Immediately assign Engineer D to City-facing projects upon hire, publicly announce the hire in a manner that signals competitive advantage derived from D's prior City role, and proceed with City proposal submissions without establishing internal recusal protocols or disclosing the conflict to the City
