What the Odebrecht Case Teaches (Blog). “International competition for infrastructure contract pays off…Odebrecht reduced the bribe it had agreed to pay the country’s president because he could not force the technical agency in charge of bidding to change the tendering documents. Whenever possible, eliminate subjective criteria for determining the winning bidder…Given the enormous opportunity for abuse when renegotiating a contract during construction, more resources should be devoted to assessing the reasons for the renegotiation and the price agreed to.”
