Engineering Ethics – Case Study #1 Team # 1 Syed Akhtar, Anthony Andrzejewski, Hasan Farrukh, Audrey Stahrr

Engineering Code of Ethics The Engineering Code of Ethics is a: Professional code of conduct Represents the highest standard of integrity and honesty Applies when dealing with the customer as well as a in-house operation.

Impacts of Engineering A direct impact on the quality of life and the quality of the environment in which people live. Engineers must always put others before themselves when designing a product or improving a process. Engineers must operate at the same level, where no one individual or group has more power over the other.

Improper Ethical Practice When Engineering companies do not follow the code of ethics they cause harm to: Public Health Safety Welfare Examples: Oil Drilling Key Stone

Case Study: Inside Tool and Die Dispute between T&D’s purchasing department and T&D’s head of tool and die department. T&D’s head of tool and die department is trying to convince purchasing to give him the quote information before the job is awarded to a company. The head of the tool and die department wants to win the job by lowering T&D’s costs before the bidding. He is trying to adopt unfair processes, by cheating the other venders, to increase the profits of the company.

Violations [Section III. Professional Obligations, 4.a.] Engineers shall not, without the consent of all interested parties, promote or arrange for new employment or practice in connection with a specific project for which the engineer has gained particular and specialized knowledge. Head of tool and die plans to use the quotes of other suppliers in the market to lower his prices in order to be awarded the business and maximize profits. [Section II. Rules of Practice, 1.c.] Engineers shall not reveal facts, data, or information without the prior consent of the client or employer except as authorized or required by law or this Code. The information he is requesting is specific to purchasing and should only be known by purchasing since they are the ones awarding the business. It is unfair to the other businesses, especially without their knowledge.

Conclusion Due to the unethical practice in which the head of tool and die plans to undertake, purchasing should tell the department head that he will receive the outside prices after the job is awarded. The directors statement is only concerning the company and not the rest of the companies that make up the competitive market. By not giving the director the quotes prior to the awarding of business, it keeps him from creating an unfairly granted monopoly of this specified market.
