Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 9, September 1, 2024
(1) Bid rejection. All bids may be rejected for good cause upon a finding by the STATE it is in the public interest to do so. Notification of rejection of all bids, along with the good cause justification and finding of public interest, may be sent to all who submitted a bid.
(2) Rejection criteria. Reasons for rejecting all bids include but are not limited to the following:
(a) Due to the content of or error in the
solicitation documents, including its terms, conditions, or specifications, the
solicitation process unnecessarily restricted competition for the public
contract; or
(b) The price
presented by the highest qualified bidder is, in the opinion of the STATE, too
low to justify acceptance of the bid; or
(c) Misconduct, error, or ambiguous or
misleading provisions in the solicitation documents threaten the fairness and
integrity of the competitive process; or
(d) Causes other than legitimate market
forces threaten the integrity of the competitive bidding process. These causes
include, but are not limited to, those that tend to limit competition such as
restrictions on competition, collusion, corruption, unlawful anti-competitive
conduct, and inadvertent or intentional errors in the solicitation
documents.
