Latest version.
(a) It is the policy of DCHD that a vendor who utilizes this appeal process shall not be subject to retaliation for taking such action.
(b) The hospital district reserves the right to award a contested bid or proposal on a contingency basis prior to conclusion of the appeal process, if it is deemed to be in the best interest of the hospital district. A contingency award permits performance to begin and will provide for a payment of reasonable termination costs if the award is invalidated on appeal.
