I make business decisions not fan favorite ones. If you truly want to see a definitive Bruce Wayne wins hands down response, make the poll "who wins in a hand to hand fist fight, no armor, Bruce or Tony?

But Tony hasn't been an alcoholic for a long time. That gets thrown out anyway because it has no bearing on meeting production rates in a factory.

Tony Stark has little competition because he is the best inventor of defense weaponry on earth in the MU. Not his fault. The Iron Man armor alone trumps everyone else who claims otherwise.

True, but you are looking at it from a purely business standpoint; Stark Industries is known for deffense, and Wayne Tech not neccesarily, and maybe for that reason the party in question's gut reaction would be to go with Tony, but there is so much more to storytelling than just that.

Competition makes you better and that is a fair point that shouldn't easily be dismissed.

Plus, Bruce is a master strategist willing to use everything in his arsenal in order to succeed. If he decides Tony is not going to get the contract, its not going to happen.

Tony's support system is weaker too. Pepper, Happy, and Rhodes would be no match for the gaggle of crime fighters at Batman's disposal.

Not all business is above the board and I'd bet Bruce would be willing to employ some pretty shady tactics in order to win the contract if he decided that is what needed to be done.

He has Oracle to hack into Stark's systems, Dick to spy on Stark's men, Drake to dig up dirt on Stark, and if all else fails; Batman to scare the shit out of someone.
