We hope this report sparks renewed interest and pushes civil leaders to be creative in their approach. This report shows how an aggressive effort to conduct managed competitions throughout the City of San Diego could save taxpayers at least $80 million. The authors identify eleven different functions that would be prime candidates for managed competition, provides 31 case studies about how other cities are using competition in these areas, and lays out key lessons learned about how to stage successful managed competitions.
