Ariz. Admin. Code § R18-15-815 - Negotiations with Responsible Offerors and Revisions of Offers
A. Negotiations may
be conducted with responsible Offerors who submit Offers determined to be
reasonably susceptible to being selected for Award for the purpose of
clarification to ensure full understanding of the Solicitation requirements and
to permit revision of Offers. The Authority shall ensure there is no disclosure
of one Offeror's price, or any information derived from competing Offers to
another Offeror. The Authority shall establish procedures and schedules for
conducting Negotiations.

conducted, the Authority shall confirm the Negotiations in writing and provide
a copy to the Offeror.

Negotiations are conducted, Negotiations shall be conducted with all Offerors
determined to be in the Competitive Range or reasonably susceptible for Award.
Offerors may revise Offers based on Negotiations provided that any revision is
confirmed in writing.
D. The
Authority may conduct Negotiations with responsible Offerors to improve Offers
in such areas as cost, price, specifications, performance, or terms, to achieve
best value for the Authority based on the requirements and the evaluation
factors set forth in the Solicitation.
E. Responsible Offerors determined to be
susceptible for Award and within the Competitive Range with which Negotiations
have been held, may revise their Offer in writing during
Negotiations.
