Prospective suppliers may be prequalified for particular types of services. Solicitation mailing lists of potential contractors shall include but shall not be limited to such prequalified suppliers.
Prospective contractors may be prequalified for bidder lists, but distribution of the solicitation shall not be limited to prequalified contractors, nor may a prospective contractor be denied award of a contract simply because such contractor was not prequalified. The fact that a prospective contractor has been prequalified does not necessarily represent a finding of responsibility.
