Bid Openings
As permitted in IDAPA 38.05.01.073, DOP will be opening all sealed bids (ITBs,RFPs, and ITNs) using “electronic virtual opening.” Again, this change is being made to limit the risk of spreading COVID-19 through contact between DOP personnel and vendors/the public. The “electronic virtual opening” will consist of a written record documenting the following information: date, time, and location of the opening; names of all persons present; name and title of the person completing the opening; and a list of all submissions received including the name of the company, the date and time of submission, and the total bid “Serving Idaho citizens through effective services to their governmental agencies” price (for ITBs only). This electronic virtual opening record will be available upon written request once the opening has been completed and the record has been finalized.
