Auctions & Competitive Bidding

When planned and executed appropriately, auctions and other competitive market mechanisms can achieve important objectives in selling or acquiring products, assets, resources, rights, and obligations. However, expertise, experience, and reputation are needed to ensure success. Since 1995, CRA has designed, conducted, and monitored high-stakes auctions and other competitive transaction mechanisms in many industries and in more than a dozen countries. Our consultants also have helped clients participate successfully in other auctions.

Whether you want to maximize the value of your assets, minimize your procurement costs, or achieve other objectives, you’ll find the expertise, experience, reputation, and support you need at CRA.
