Division 5 - RENEWAL, SCREENING AND SELECTION FOR BENEFITS AND VENDOR CONTRACTS
Section 101-005-0080 - RFP Protest; Request for Change; Request for Clarification
Current through Register Vol. 64, No. 3, March 1, 2025
(1) Protest.
(2) Request for Change.
(3) Board Response. The Board shall not consider a Proposer's request for change or protest after the deadline established for submitting such request or protest. The Board shall provide notice to the applicable entity if it entirely rejects a protest. If the Board agrees with the entity's request or protest, in whole or in part, the Board shall either issue an addendum reflecting its determination under OAR 137-047-0430 or cancel the solicitation under 137-047-0660.
(4) Extension of Closing. If the Board receives a written request for change or protest from a Proposer in accordance with this rule, the Board may extend closing if the Board determines an extension is necessary to consider the request or protest and to issue an addendum, if any, to the RFP.
(5) Clarification. Unless otherwise specified in the procurement, and prior to the deadline for submitting a written request for change or protest, a Proposer may request that the Board clarify any provision of the RFP. The Board's clarification to a Proposer, whether orally or in writing, does not change the RFP and is not binding on the Board unless the Board amends the RFP by addendum.
