MUST BID OPENING FOR RFQS (UNDER AN ITQ/MULTIPLE AWARD) BE PUBLIC? WHAT ARE THE REQUIREMENTS FOR POSTING RESULTS?
It is not a “bid opening.” The Agency is requesting quotes, not bids. It is a best value selection process and not a contract award process. There is no statutory requirement for a public opening or a posting of the quotes received. However, agencies should follow the procedures established for the contract for the handling and evaluation of the quotes to ensure the integrity of the process.
