370 Neb. Admin. Code, ch. 300, § 303

Current through September 17, 2024

Section 370-300-303 - BIDS OR PROPOSALS

303.01 Bids or proposals to conform with specifications

All bids or proposals must conform to the specifications indicated by the Division. Bids or proposals which do not conform to the specifications may be rejected. The Division reserves the right to waive deficiencies in the bids or proposals if in the judgement of the Division the best interests of the lottery would be served by the waiver.

303.01A Proposals only intended to include a portion of the project must clearly identify those requirements that were not included in the proposal. If no exclusions are stated, the proposal is presumed to include all of the requirements of the ITB or RFP.

303.02 Time of submission

All bids or proposals must be submitted by the bidder in sufficient time to physically reach the Division prior to the date and time set for submission established by the Division.

303.02A Bids or proposals received after the appropriate date and time shall not be returned to the bidder unless the bidder specifically requests their return.

303.02B The bidder is solely responsible for ensuring that bids or proposals are physically received by the Division prior to the date and time specified.

303.03 Modification or withdrawal of bids

Bids or proposals may be modified or withdrawn prior to the time and date set for submission. Modifications or withdrawals shall be in writing and delivered in a sealed envelope which properly identifies the correct bid or proposal to be modified or withdrawn. A bid or proposal may be withdrawn after the opening only with the approval of the Division if the Division finds that an honest error was made by the bidder which would cause undue financial hardship to the bidder and which would not cause undue financial hardship or inconvenience to the Division.

303.03A In any bid or proposal, where written words differ from figures, the written words will govern.

303.03B Any correction or alteration to a bid or proposal must be in writing and shall be initialed, in ink, by the person who signs the bid or proposal.
