[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not as a fed, but was asked to help a contractor underbid another contractor (tell them what the other guys bid).  I refused, even though I was told it was standard operating procedure. Leadership backed down, and allowed the process to go on as planned. 
Their friend lost the bid fair and square.  Had they not backed down, I was willing to quit[/quote]

I used to sell consulting and quite often people wanted to hire my firm as we were really good. It it was competitive bidding I tell them tell me lowest and if I can will beat it if not I will not bid.

It was win win they got who they wanted at a lower price and I did not waste their time and my time bidding on something my bid was too high.

What is problem?

Yes. Definitely.

You had an advantage other firms did not.

Those people were breaking the rules/law. (Every bidder has to be given the same specs on the job, going into their bid)

Lots of illegal acts are “win-wins” for the criminals involved. [/quote]
