Decision question
Should Engineer A continue performing his State DOT duties — including reviewing private firm traffic signal contracts and disseminating FAA qualifications-based selection guidelines to municipalities — while simultaneously soliciting those same municipalities for private airport consulting contracts, or must he treat the cross-domain same-client overlap as independently disqualifying regardless of domain separation?
Focus
Engineer A: Whether Reviewing Private Firm Contracts and Disseminating FAA Guidelines While Simultaneously Soliciting Those Same Municipal Clients for Private Airport Consulting Constitutes an Exploitable Cross-Domain Same-Client Conflict
Option1
Treat the cross-domain same-client overlap as independently disqualifying and refrain from any private solicitation of municipalities that receive State DOT airport grant funding or submit traffic signal plans for DOT review, recognizing that the informational and procedural advantage from the FAA guideline dissemination role cannot be neutralized by recusal or disclosure alone.
Option2
Continue both DOT duties and private solicitation activity, but implement a systematic recusal protocol under which Engineer A abstains from reviewing any traffic signal plans or grant activities involving municipalities simultaneously being solicited by his former firm, treating targeted recusal as sufficient to manage the specific conflict events as they arise.
Option3
Continue DOT duties without modification but restrict the former firm's solicitation activity to municipalities that have no current or pending State DOT airport grant relationships and no traffic signal submissions before Engineer A, thereby eliminating the shared-stakeholder overlap while preserving Engineer A's ability to perform his primary DOT functions and pursue legitimate private professional opportunities.
