Contracts are awarded to the vendor meeting requirements whose bid or proposal for products and/or services and cost is the
most advantageous to the hospital district. Price shall be a factor in the award, but not the only factor. Other evaluation
factors in the solicitation may include acceptability, service, quality, delivery and other factors. If the vendor recommended
to receive the award is not the lowest offeror, each lower priced offeror is given notice of the proposed award and an opportunity
to meet with the vice-president over purchasing to present information concerning the low offeror's responsiveness to the
specifications and/or needs of the hospital district. Notice of appeal must be submitted within three working days of the
contract award. If after this meeting further action is required, the vendor may continue the appeal process. Appeal reviews
are conducted in the following order:
(1) The senior vice-president with responsibility for purchasing or designee, and the director of legal affairs or designee.
(2) The hospital district board of managers.
Appeal decisions rendered by the board of managers are final.
