A conflict-of-interest condition in which the current work of a private firm lies outside the area of work a public employee reviews or oversees in an official capacity, so the firm's engagements do not come before the employee for official action.

A regulatory condition in which a public agency neither contracts directly with the consultants hired by the funded parties nor participates in the selection of those consultants, other than providing guidelines on qualifications-based selection procedures, so the agency holds no direct contractual or selection role over the consultant engagements. Here the State DOT does not contract with municipal airport consultants and is involved in their selection only by providing FAA guidelines.
