<p>[quote user="henry6"]</p> <p>Thinking and linking big business and public projects, the question arises: isn't it big business doing public projects? So how often is it the big business's fault for the cost over run rather than the fact that it is a public project? Is not big business taking advantage of the fact that it is is a public project and therefore can bid low, overlook whatever, and when the time comes send an bloated invoice for services rendered?</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-fareast-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;">Ultimately, it is the responsibility of the public sector management to control the bidding process, and the performance of the private sector contractors on public projects.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>It is the same as with a private sector project where the general contractor will control the bidding and performance of the sub-contractors.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If the sub-contractors don’t perform, they don’t get paid.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>If they overcharge, the general contractor refuses payment.</span><span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"><span style="font-family: verdana,geneva;"> </span> </span></span></p>
