The Case for Unfair Competition
Quality Control/Internal Control. The value that the SDAE adds in the form of control must not be understated. The SDAE is not just another source for a product or service. It is an integral part of the institution that has the edge on what departments need and the institution wants. It is a control point—a special source of quality and result. It arises from the very need of the institution, and it has a distinctive sense of how the institution and its departments can best be served. The SDAE can also serve as an integral element in the institution's system of internal control. As compared with the general market, the SDAE is in a better position to help preserve the institution's assets and protect them from theft, pilferage, loss, and other perils.
