Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in 17:12-3.2(b)1 and 3.3(b)1, the Director is entitled to request, receive, and review copies of any and all records and documents deemed appropriate and relevant to the issues and arguments set forth in the protest. Upon receipt of the Director's request, the bidder shall promptly provide the requested records and documents free of charge in the time, place, and manner specified by the Director. If the protesting bidder fails to comply with the provisions of this section, such failure may constitute a reasonable basis for the Director to resolve the protest against the bidder submitting the protest. The Director may also consider relevant information requested and received from other parties deemed appropriate by the Director.
