Mini-Bid Dispute Resolution Process If the Authorized User does not have a dispute resolution policy, please refer to OSC or OGS dispute resolution policy for guidance in creating a policy. In the event the Contractor has any disputes with the Authorized User, the Contractor shall so notify the Authorized User in writing. If either party notifies the other of such dispute, the other party shall then make good faith efforts to solve the problem or settle the dispute amicably, including meeting with the party’s representatives to attempt diligently to reach a satisfactory result through negotiation. In the event that the Contractor and the Authorized User are unable to resolve a conflict through negotiation, then both parties will comply with the Authorized User’s stated dispute resolution policy which must be included as part of the Authorized User Agreement. If the conflict is still unresolved, please refer to section 4.2.1.II.A.3 for guidance. Mini-Bid Proposal Validity All Contractor responses to Authorized User Mini-Bids must remain open and valid for at least 60 days from the Mini-Bid opening date, unless the time for awarding the Authorized User Agreement is extended by mutual consent of the Authorized User and the Contractor. A Contractor’s Mini-Bid response shall continue to remain an effective offer, firm and irrevocable, subsequent to such 60 day period until either tentative award of the Authorized User Agreement by the Authorized User is made or withdrawal of the Contractor response in writing by the Contractor. Tentative award of the Authorized User Agreement shall consist of written notice to that effect by an Authorized User to a successful Contractor, who shall thereupon be obligated to execute a formal Authorized User Agreement.
