Part 3 - RESIDENT CONTRACTOR PREFERENCE
Section 1.4.3.9 - PREQUALIFICATION
Universal Citation: 1 NM Admin Code 1.4.3.9
Current through Register Vol. 35, No. 18, September 24, 2024
A. Prequalification required. No contractor shall be treated as a resident contractor in the awarding of public works by a state agency or local public body unless the contractor has prequalified as a resident contractor by making application to the state purchasing agent and receiving from him a certification number.
B. Procedure. The prequalification procedure shall be as follows:
(1) the state purchasing agent shall prepare
an application form for certification as a resident contractor requiring such
information and proof as he deems necessary to prequalify the applicant under
the terms of this rule;
(2) a
prospective resident contractor shall complete the application form and submit
it to the state purchasing agent prior to the submission of a bid on which the
contractor desires to be given a preference;
(3) the state purchasing agent shall examine
the application and if necessary may seek additional information or proof so as
to be assured that the applicant is indeed entitled to certification as a
resident contractor. If the state purchasing agent is so assured, he shall
issue the applicant a distinctive certification number which is valid until
revoked and which, when used on bids and other purchasing documents for state
agencies or local public bodies, entitles the holder of the number to treatment
as a resident contractor under Section 1.4.3.8 of this rule.
