- "LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION: WINNING SITE SELECTION
PROPOSALS." Pittman, Robert H. 2006. Management Quarterly 47, no. 1: 12-25. Business Source
Premier, EBSCOhost (accessed November 18, 2009).
The article provides an overview of the typical commercial and industrial
customer's location decision process and offers guidance for attracting new
business to the utility's service territory. Since site selection is an
investment decision, most companies calculate the costs, benefits and returns on
investment among alternative locations. The three phases of the typical site
selection are presented and the different reasons behind the companies'
expansion or relocation decisions are discussed.
