La. Admin. Code tit. 34, § XIII-1307 - Responsibility of Bidders and Proposers

A. A reasonable inquiry to determine the responsibility of a bidder or proposer may be conducted. The unreasonable failure of a bidder or proposer promptly to supply information in connection with such an inquiry may be grounds for a determination of non-responsibility with respect to such bidder or proposer.

B. Whenever the CPO proposes to disqualify the lowest bidder, the university shall:

1. give written notice of the proposed disqualification to such bidder and include all reasons for the proposed disqualification;

2. give such bidder who is proposed to be disqualified, a reasonable opportunity to be heard at an informal hearing at which such bidder is afforded the opportunity to refute the reasons for the disqualification.

C. Except as otherwise provided by law, information furnished by a proposer pursuant to this Section may not be disclosed outside of the university without prior written consent of notice to the proposer.
