Dirk,

When I was on staff at other institutions, it was our practice to give the names of at least 3 individuals or companies and tell the individual that we were doing this as a courtesy and could not recommend one over the other.

If you prepare lists of area framers and of art transport companies, you could hand those lists to the person inquiring and indicate that it was the inquirer's responsibility to do their due diligence in reviewing their qualifications, experience, charges, etc.

Hope this helps.

What is your organizations policy for dealing with requests of this nature?

 

Not to be paranoid, but I am concerned of the possible repercussions if something should go awry? 

 

We have an established response for appraisal referrals and I was wondering if anyone might have a response for inquiries of this nature?

 

Thank you in advance!

 

Dirk
