| | If a company does a design for a customer, specifies the solution, should the that company also be able to bid this project? To me, it seems like a conflict of interest. It seems unethical. Can anyone shed light on this? |

| CONTEXT is the answer
Lets say
2008 an RCDD is hired to set a project without detailed enginerring only a Technical overview and some drawings to have a BUDGET to set the organization TI general budget
2009 the project has been changed by the customer with some additions and some deductions. Then ask to several integrator to re engineering the project and give a economical proposal; giving to all of them the same information, time and so on
Is it the same project that RCDD design in 2008?
Does he & his company (same than 2008) the ethical rigth to bid?
Does the customer want that he & his company bid?
I used to be a DIGITAL guy (1 or 0) , after 40 years (now I am 50) I discovered that ANALOG world exist (greys and colours)
I read (intuition on keyboard strokes) that you are affected for the customer decition, Customer has ALWAYS their strange reasons (because money and power belongs to them) and -if there is not a law to enforce- they gave the rules to compite among the market suppliers.
After some days & years; if the project in question give you a head or stomach ache , remember that next day will pop up one or more new projects.
