Current through Register Vol. 56, No. 23, December 2, 2024

Section 17:9-10.5 - Notice of formal, advertised, sealed bidding opportunities

(a) A notice of bid opportunity shall be advertised in newspapers or other such media as allowed by law and selected by the Commission, as will give best notice thereof to bidders. Advertisements shall be placed a minimum of 30 calendar days in advance of bid opening.

(b) Notice of bid opportunity and the RFP shall be published on the Division's website a minimum of 30 calendar days in advance of bid opening.

(c) If an amendment to a published RFP is necessary, notice of the amendment and the amendment shall be published on the Division's website a minimum of five working days in advance of bid opening.

(d) The Division shall maintain a list of vendors having expressed an interest in bidding in response to a particular contract initiative. Vendors on the list shall be provided e-mail notice of the publication on the Division's website of any RFP that they have expressed an interest in receiving and e-mail notice of the publication on the Division's website of any subsequent amendment to such RFP. However, the mere placement of a vendor's name on the bid list does not create an absolute entitlement to notice. It is the vendor's responsibility to exercise due diligence in reviewing legal notices and the Division's website to ensure its participation in bidding opportunities.
