Pre-payment; commitment Explanation: Julia, This word must have to do with putting something towards an agreement--either some commitment, or a deposit (pre-payment). On the internet there was this paragraph about fraud in the building industry, and how agreements were made. The word appears at the end of this text: Zorg dat je een bestek met een inschrijfformulier in je bezit krijgt, omdat er vaak weinig worden verstrekt. Een of enkele aannemers hebben het werk graag om de ordermap te vullen en zijn bereid de anderen uit te kopen. Dit gebeurt meestal in een hotel of restaurant of ander publiek gebouw. Daar wordt een kamer of zaaltje gehuurd naar gelang de verwachte belangstelling en wordt genoemd voorbesteding. |

peer agreement (net): +1pre-tender meeting Explanation: The term 'voorbesteding' cannot be found in the Dutch "Oxford' De 'Dikke' Van Dale. It is solely a term that is used in the building industry. According to what I found below, it is just a meeting for contractors, where they get a small compensation for attending and weeds out the small businesses. No wonder that this contract would like a personal meeting! Stichting Sociale Databank Nederland en de Schade ... ... gelang de verwachte belangstelling en wordt genoemd voorbesteding. www.sdnl.nl/jan-van-de-vorst.htm - 11k - In cache - Gelijkwaardige pagina's Maatschappijleer | - | Maatschappijleer-analyse van een ...... De bouwsector heeft als gevolg hiervan geheel eigen rituelen ontwikkeld. Zo was het vóór 1992 geoorloofd dat aannemers een voorbesteding hielden, tijdens welke de prijzen werden vergeleken en de prijs van de laagste bieder volgens geldende regels door de vergadering werden vastgesteld. Gezien het werk dat in de regel met een aanbieding gemoeid was, kreeg elke aanbieder ongeacht de kwaliteit van zijn voorstel, een rekenvergoeding toegekend. www.collegenet.nl/studiemateriaal/ verslagen.php?verslag_id=11161&site= - 30k - Toegevoegde zoekresultaten -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs 6 mins (2005-02-23 10:38:22 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I meant to say: This *contractor* would like a personal meeting! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2 hrs 10 mins (2005-02-23 10:41:56 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- I also meant to say that the word \'voorbesteding\' is a take-off on \'aanbesteding\': aanbesteding de (v.) 1 handeling putting out to tender call / invitation for tenders aan iemand contracting-out 2 opdracht Then there are many, many Google hits on \'pre-tender meeting\', which contrary to the Dutch word, really only serves to provide information. |
