Blunders and Bodger carry out a thorough review of a proposed tender submission!
Cory Environmental was rather like working for the waste collection equivalent of the keystone cops. I mentioned before that my opportunity to work for the Company was almost entirely due to their incompetence at preparing a realistic tender and they were certain to win the work in the first place because the always managed to under price the bid. In the 1980s and 1990s because Margaret Thatcher thought that the private sector was, by definition, much more competent and efficient in these matters than the public sector, local authorities were required to offer certain services for open competition.
