PROCEDURES FOR AWARDING CONTRACTS
Section 333.155 - Communication with contact person

1. Before advertising a request for proposals, the Administrator or the using agency must designate a person to answer questions concerning the contract to be awarded by competitive selection pursuant to the request for proposals. Except as otherwise provided in NAC 333.165, that person must be the only contact person throughout the process of awarding the contract.

2. A person who wishes to submit a proposal or a representative of such a person shall not ask questions of or otherwise discuss the contents of a request for proposals with an employee or representative of a using agency identified in the request for proposals as the agency for which the purchase is to be made unless the employee or representative of the using agency is the person designated by the using agency as the contact person pursuant to subsection 1.

3. The Administrator of the Division or the chief of the using agency may disqualify a proposal submitted by a person who violates the provisions of subsection 2.

4. The provisions of this section do not prohibit discussions between a person who wishes to submit a proposal and an employee or representative of a using agency identified in a request for proposals as the agency for which the purchase is to be made if those discussions are unrelated to the contract to be awarded pursuant to the request for proposals.
