Definition
Engineer A provided a partial comparative evaluation of project delivery methodologies that omitted full analysis of all four methodologies and excluded information unfavorable to the recommended option, mirroring the selective omission condemned in BER 95-5 and 99-8.
Properties
Instance of
Applied to
Summary memo on project delivery methods for City B wastewater project
Balancing with
Advisory Role Integrity Principle
Conflict of Interest Disclosure Principle
Concrete expression
Engineer A provided a partial comparative evaluation of project delivery methodologies that omitted full analysis of all four methodologies and excluded information unfavorable to the recommended option, mirroring the selective omission condemned in BER 95-5 and 99-8.
Confidence
0.9
Interpretation
The completeness obligation required Engineer A to either provide a full analysis of all four methodologies with pros and cons or to refer City B to neutral resources, not to submit a partial analysis that served Engineer A's interest in subsequent work.
Tension resolution
No legitimate competing principle justified the omission; the BER found the incomplete submission unethical without qualification.

Engineer A did not inform anyone as to the incompleteness at the time of submission
by providing only a partial, comparative engineering evaluation with no analysis and a recommendation to Engineer A's benefit, the conduct constituted both incomplete and self-serving information (as in 95-5 and 99-8)
the engineer failed to include in the report that the initial log indicated that several of the piles were driven to essential refusal (intentional disregard of other information)
