N.M. Admin. Code § 1.4.2.10 - REVOCATION OF CERTIFICATION NUMBERS
A. General. All certification numbers are
subject to revocation in accordance with this rule. A certification number does
not establish conclusively that the holder of the number is a resident
business. Rather, a certification number merely establishes that the state
purchasing agent believed, as of the date of issuance, the holder was entitled
to treatment as a resident business by state agencies and local public bodies.
Whenever a certification number is challenged, the holder of the number has the
burden of persuasion on the issue of whether the holder is actually a resident
business.
B. Revocation. A
certification number shall be revoked by the state purchasing agent upon making
a determination that the holder of the number no longer qualifies as a resident
business.
(1) A revocation shall be effective
immediately and shall apply to all subsequent contract awards. A revocation
shall not affect any previously awarded contracts, though, in the absence of
fraud or bad faith.
(2) At any
time, the state purchasing agent may request information or proof from the
holder of a certification number as to whether the holder continues to qualify
as a resident business. If the holder fails to provide any requested
information or proof, this certification number may be revoked.
