Section 125-247-0340 - Reverse Auctions(1) If the Authorized Agency desires to conduct a Reverse Auction as defined in OAR 125-247-0288, the Authorized Agency must follow the policy of the Department. The requirements of OAR 125-247-0288 apply to Reverse Auctions. In the event of conflict or ambiguity, the more specific requirements of OAR 125-247-0288 take precedence over the more general requirements of this Rule.(2) Multiple Receipts of Offers during a Period of Time. When the Authorized Agency specifies that Persons may submit multiple Electronic Offers during a period of time, the Authorized Agency must accept Electronic Offers, and Persons may submit Electronic Offers, in accordance with the following:(a) Following receipt of the first Electronic Offer after the day and time the Authorized Agency first receives Electronic Offers, the Authorized Agency must give notice to the initial Bidders and update on a real time basis: (A) The prices of the other Bidders or the price of the most competitive Bidder;(B) The rank of each Bidder (e.g., (i) "winning" or "not winning" or (ii) "1st, 2nd, or higher");(C) The scores of the Bidders if the Authorized Agency chooses to use a scoring model that weighs non-price factors in addition to price; or(D) Any combination of (A), (B) and (C) above. At any time before the date and time after which the Authorized Agency will no longer receive Electronic Offers, a Person may revise its Electronic Offer, except that a Person may not lower its price unless that price is below the then lowest Electronic Offer.(b) A Person may not increase the price set forth in an Electronic Offer after the day and time that the Authorized Agency first accepts Electronic Offers.(c) A Person may withdraw an Electronic Offer only in compliance with these division 247 Rules. If a Person withdraws an Electronic Offer, it may not later submit an Electronic Offer at a price higher than that set forth in the withdrawn Electronic Offer.Or. Admin. R. 125-247-0340
