If a design professional is drafting specifications for public works projects, what restrictions are made on her freedom of design?
What will be an ideal response?
Design professionals drafting specifications for public works projects do not
have a freedom of design. To the contrary: product specifications must not
be so restrictive as to result in a “sole source” solicitation. Overly restrictive
specifications diminish competition and may be the result of collusion
between the design team creating the specifications and particular
manufacturers.
