Abstract

The results described confirm the thorough assessment implemented by the model and an output mechanism able to highlight key contractor characteristics. The exercise also supports the contention, that examination of contractors should aim to establish project performance potential and rely less on estimated project cost (tender sum). © 1995, Taylor & Francis Group, LLC.
