Audit et conseil
Dans le cas où elle aurait fourni une intervention d'audit ou conseil, incluant l'assistance à maîtrise d'ouvrage (AMOA), OSInet s'interdit d'être candidate à une consultation organisée par le Client pour la réalisation ou modification du site ou logiciel ayant fait l'objet de l'intervention d'audit ou conseil, et ce pour une durée de 12 mois après la fin de ladite prestation, afin d'éviter tout conflit d'intérêt potentiel.
Cette interdiction ne pourra être levée, le cas échéant, qu'à la demande expresse et à l'initiative du Client, celui-ci prenant alors à sa charge la gestion du conflit d'intérêt.
