Negotiation: Federal Science Fund Role: Turbo
What issues are most important to you? (list in order of importance)
1. Funds for R&D
2. Ability to contribute value of each consortium
3. Future relationship with other firms
What is your BATNA? Reservation Price? Target?
My BATNA is $0 if the other two firms want to cooperate with each other and kick me out. My target is to cooperate with Stockman and get the fund of $440,000 and split the fund between us two. Since Stockman contributes more value than me but I have more need of money than him, I hope to divide the fund half and half and each of us gets $220,000.
What are your sources of power?
My source of power is that our firm is oldest and well established with mid-sized staff and a moderately sized laboratory. Turbo concentrates in cancer-related technologies and has a reputation for steady output and reliable products. Turbo contributes more value than United. Moreover, if stockman and I cooperate, we could get the highest fund that is $440,000.

Stockman concentrates in basic research, producing a wide variety of products. Stockman has the greatest number of scientists and the largest laboratory. United industry is the youngest company, with the smallest staff and lab. It is known for innovative technological breakthrough.
