Client Loyalty
Equal Competitive Access in Design-Phase Consultation
Concrete expression
The public's interest in a well-designed, constructible water treatment facility — a critical public health infrastructure asset — provides the underlying justification for Engineer A's desire to obtain constructability input, while the public's interest in fair and uncorrupted procurement processes provides the constraint on how that input may be obtained
