&lt;p&gt;&lt;b&gt;New page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div&gt;A good department-contractor relationship can be maintained if these suggestions are considered:&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;a.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Treat the contractor fairly and impartially.&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;b.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Study the contractor&amp;#039;s viewpoint. Be friendly but impersonal with the contractor. Do not put yourself under obligation to any contractor.&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;c.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Do not discuss with outsiders the contractor&amp;#039;s methods of handling work. Make any suggestions to the contractor only.&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;d.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Be ready to advise the contractor if requested, but do not make snap decisions.&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;e.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Issue orders only to the contractor or the contractor&amp;#039;s authorized representative.&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;f.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Write and retain copies of specific orders given.&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;g.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Discuss the contractor&amp;#039;s schedule with the contractor frequently. Coordinate staking and inspection with the contractor&amp;#039;s schedule.&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;h.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Do not be arbitrary. Do not become involved in pointless argument with the contractor or the contractor&amp;#039;s personnel regarding matters related to the work.&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;i.&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; Do not accept gratuities from the contractor. Do not be threatened or intimidated by the contractor. Notify your supervisor of any trouble.&lt;br /&gt;
