Section
6.440
Decision
a) A decision on a protest will be made as expeditiously as
possible after receiving all relevant information.
b) The protest will be sustained only if it is determined by the CPO
that the protest conclusively demonstrates by the preponderance of relevant
information submitted that fraud, corruption or illegal acts have occurred that
undermine the integrity of the procurement process.
c) If the protest is sustained, the remedies available are
limited to cancellation or revision of the solicitation, or readvertisement of
the solicitation. Relief available does not include award of the contract to
the protester.
d) The decision of the CPO is final and conclusive unless clearly
erroneous, arbitrary, capricious or contrary to law. (See Section 20-75 of the
Code.) A copy of the decision of the CPO will be transmitted to the protester
within 14 days after the decision is entered.
