"The American Public Works Association (APWA) believes that the public interest is best served when governmental agencies select architects, engineers and related professional technical consultants for projects and studies through Qualifications-Based Selection (QBS) procedures. Basing selections on qualificaions and competence (rather than price) fosters greater creativity and flexibility, and minimizes the potential for disputes and litigation."

- APWA Policy Statement

"...reliance must be placed on the experience, expertise and overall intellectual capacity of the people involved who will ultimitely determine the success of the project design or technical study."

-APWA Reporter, October 1994

"We were extremely pleased with the engineering firm that was elected through the QBS process. Both the Facility Plan and the actual construction project met our criteria and expectations. We will definitely be using the QBS process for our future projects.

-Robert Pirtle, Chairman of the Delaware County Regional Wastewater District and 1997 Recipient of the QBS Award

Our Building Committee was most fortunate to have available the Qualifications Based Selection (QBS) process to assist us in the selection of the most qualified professionals to accomplish the goals of St. Luke's UMC in our twelve-million dollar expansion program. QBS kept the Committee focused and unemotional in choosing the best firms and the results of the design team selected exceeded our expectations.
