Sorry if this is a duplicate, My other computer doesn't appear to be posting this msg..... Can anyone advise me on advising a university here on how to word a bid to techs and maximize the chance of getting what they want as far as level of work. I mean, is "to factory spec"the only thing they can use as a standard to level the playing field on bidders? If they asked for a price on regulating a piano, seven techs will do more than one level of work and charge different amounts and all be able to call it a "regulation" (and factory spec is not even optimum at the highest levels). They can ask for bids for concert tuning and voicing and get lots of different levels of work, even from RPT's. Are there sources of info on handling this and optimizing the chances of getting what they are paying for? The whole system just doesn't seem to be conducive to getting good quality work, just the cheapest price. Thanks in advance.
