During the 1990’s the Carrier Corporation was working on a highly innovative new global chiller under 300 kW, called Aquasnap. The new design would integrate a Hydronic Kit inside the chiller, all previous versions required installation of the kit outside the chiller. While the new design would cost less, require less installation time, and save floor space, it did raise some concerns. Carrier was becoming deeply invested in the design and was worried if the world was ready for such an innovative product. The following sections answer some of the issues; what should Thierry Jomard’s (lead engineer) decision be, should the hydronic kit be integrated and how does Carrier address future environmental regulations, what are the

In our experiment the question we were trying to answer was “Does a physical change, change the mass of an object”. This means that when you take a tablet or clay and you crush it or alter the shape of it and it does not weigh the same after then the weight of the object did change and that would answer your question. When a physical change occurs it is not forming a new object it is just changing the way it looks or changing a solid to a liquid such as ice melting. During our experiment we took our two objects( ice and clay) and weighed them to get the initial weight before anything happened to them. The starting weight of the clay was 7g and the starting weight of the ice was 20g. After we weighed them we set the ice to the side

Procurement by public entities is guided by primary law principles of transparency, equal treatment and non-discrimination, procurement laws sets up an extensive legal framework regarding the procurement of work, supply and service contracts. There are two main reasons for the use of specific procedures i.e. why contracting authorities do not just negotiate or simply buy from the closest supplier.

Additionally, tendering procedures aim to ensure the best value for money by making it necessary for suppliers to act highly competitive. As a result, market mechanisms will help in facilitating the best possible practices. In situations where market mechanisms are not effective, tender procedures might lose their effectiveness as well. If for example there is lack of competition due to certain complexities or as a result of lower bidder interest, negotiations with just one or two suppliers may be the most efficient manner to handle the process. Therefore, we discuss the inherent advantages and disadvantages of sealed bidding and contracting by negotiation as procedural frameworks for tendering.
