Including lively case studies and research conducted with state and local agencies across the United States, this award-winning book provides management advice and tips on compliance to reduce costs, select the best-qualified contractors, manage contractors' performance, and prevent corruption and waste. Utilizing the results of new research across states, cities, counties, and institutes of higher learning, this third edition offers 18 all-new best-practice documents as well as updated methodologies and templates including but not limited to: a full-length and short-form Request for Proposal (RFP), a full-length and short-form Pro Forma Contract (PFC), letter contracts, a sample estimate at completion, a contract amendment template, and a form for evaluation of proposals.
