Abstract

This paper examines the potential for the use of case-based reasoning for contractor prequalification. From a study of the current prequalification practices in the United Kingdom, the characteristics of this domain are identified. The domain suitability is determined by referring these characteristics to the principles and requirements of the case-based reasoning approach. The authors then propose a case-based conceptual framework for prequalifying contractors. Development tools having a high potential to satisfy the conceptual framework are identified. These tools are evaluated according to the conceptual framework to establish their ability to model the prequalification domain.
