Universal Citation: LA Admin Code XXIII-357

Current through Register Vol. 50, No. 9, September 20, 2024

A. The invitation for bids shall set forth the evaluation criteria to be used in determining product acceptability. The invitation for bids may require the submission of bid samples, descriptive literature, technical data, or other material. It may also provide for inspection or testing of a product prior to award for such characteristics as quality or workmanship.

B. Examination of the product to determine whether the product conforms with purchase description requirements, such as unit of measure or packaging, shall be performed. If a bidder changes the unit or packaging, the bid for the changed item shall be rejected.

C. The acceptability evaluation is not conducted for the purpose of determining whether one bidder's item is superior to another but only to determine that a bidder's offering is acceptable as set forth in the invitation for bids. Any bidder's offering which does not meet the acceptability requirements shall be rejected.
