      ab: InfrastructureWorld's website offers large-scale engineering projects to the lowest bidder via the Internet. The site connects users with the people who provide everything required for the construction of airports, highways, power stations, and water-treatment plants. The aim is to speed up and reduce the costs of large construction projects around the globe. The site is the brainchild of Cordell Hull, a former chairman of Bechtel Enterprises, which now has a 47 percent share in the site. Hull claims this start-up has the ability to cut corruption in infrastructure projects in developing countries because computer programs can be set up to highlight when the most competitive bid has not been selected, allowing project managers or auditors to question decisions.
