The adjudication of bids shall be informal proceedings; its regulations and terms shall be established by the agencies. The party adversely affected by a decision may, within ten (10) days after the adjudication of the bid, file a motion for reconsideration before the agency or appellate body for bids, if one exists in such agency, as the case may be. The agency or appellate body shall consider the motion within ten (10) days from filing. If the agency makes a determination upon consideration, the term to request a judicial review shall begin to elapse from the filing date of a copy of the notice of the agency or appellate body’s decision settling the motion in the case record. If the filing date of the copy of the notice of entry of judgment or order differs from the date of mailing of said notice, the term shall be calculated from the mailing date. If the agency or appellate body fails to act on the motion for reconsideration within ten (10) days after the filing thereof, it shall be understood that the motion was outright denied and the term for judicial review shall begin to elapse from said date.
