BID/RFP Appeals

The BID/RFP Appeals process allows for vendors or prospective vendors to formulate a protest regarding alleged irregularities or improprieties during the procurement process. Appeals may be submitted at any time during the procurement process, but not later than 5 days after Procurement’s public notification of bid tabulation and recommendation of award.

All appeals will be independently reviewed by both the MPS Administrations Chief Financial Officer and the Senior Director of the Office of Accountability and Efficiency. The independent reviewers will then formulate their recommendation and provide supporting evidence to the Superintendent within 10 days of receiving the request for appeal.

(Note: No appeal shall claim that the review committee’s recommendation is not a responsive bidder/offeror).
