The term is US based
We come up with the criteria we want and builders then submit design and specification for assessment and evaluation
In other words, we are looking for fitness for purpose, not basing the decision on the cost

But its not an open tender which means a selected tender. Which would mean Edwards was lying or he has dupped by the PM.
But thats ok the Japanese have said they will not share there intellectual property and thats fair enough its there right. Unless of course that os a condition of the tender package.

This is how this PM operates. He thinks Government Executive consists of the Prime Minister's Office alone.
This is why he will not be PM for much longer.
I agree with most of what you have posted about Abbott in different threads
But your Abbott bashing is relentless
How many more times do I have to read that in your opinion Abbott is finished ?
You have made your point , you dont have to remind us on a daily basis or several times a week

However, I do agree there has been duplicity in the appearing to promise the role to SA and then backing away.
On the other hand, as much as it would be good to have the work in SA, the past Collins class subs were subject to excessive delays in being deployable due the leaks, and excessive noise which made them too easily detectable. The ASC would need to convince the government that wouldn't happen again.

How convenient that the Japanese built subs met all the criteria then.

That's the problem with constantly attempting to post budget surplus', the unemployment rate then fluctuates.

Cutting discretionary spending harder than the automatic stabilisers pushing it up will lead to an increase in unemployment. It's what we're seeing currently.
