Ms. ABDULLAH: I think one of the issues is that we are sort of used to the idea that citizen engagement is an input process model, and they are not really an active participant in making and deciding what those policies should be.
Because the marketplace model relies on highquality input of ideas, these firms tend to seek opportunities from many sources, including close interactions with clients and partners.
The model begins with an input-output table, which says that, for example, the steel mill industry uses the output of the iron ore industry, the electric utility industry, as well as labor and some lesser inputs.
