http://proethica.org/ontology/intermediate#ClientCost-DirectiveSafetyAnalysisNon-SubordinationObligation
Case context
Client B has directed Engineer A to proceed without the costly specialized analysis unless regulators request it, overriding Engineer A's professional recommendation that the analysis is necessary to characterize material flood risks to upstream homeowners.
Compliance status
unmet
Confidence
0.9
Importance
high
Obligated party
Engineer A
Obligation statement
Engineer A is obligated to refuse to subordinate the professionally recommended specialized hydrologic and hydraulic analysis to Client B's cost-reduction directive, and to document in writing both Client B's directive and Engineer A's professional objection to proceeding without the analysis.
Temporal scope
Upon receipt of Client B's directive to forgo the specialized analysis
Source Evidence
Source text
Client B directs Engineer A to proceed without the costly analysis unless and until such an analysis is requested by the applicable regulatory authorities.
Text references
Client B directs Engineer A to proceed without the costly analysis unless and until such an analysis is requested by the applicable regulatory authorities.
Engineer A proposes a complex and costly hydrologic and hydraulic analysis by a specialized subconsultant to predict the extent to which sea level rise and the increased hydraulic capacity of the tidal crossing will result in flood damage to a neighborhood of twenty upstream homes
