25 IAC 1.1-1-4 Competitive sealed bids; withdrawal

Sec. 4. Withdrawal of a bid shall be permitted before the exact date and hour for submission of bids, either by an agent of the bidder bearing proper authorization and identification who shall receive and sign for the unopened bid packet, or by the timely receipt of a certified letter or electronic mail from the bidder. A bid already submitted may be modified by withdrawal of the bid as provided above and resubmission of the modified bid before the exact date and hour for submission of bids. The bid may also be modified by the timely receipt of a certified letter or electronic mail from the bidder. Neither the staff nor the facilities of the department of administration shall be available to a bidder desiring to make modifications. The Commissioner has the authority to cancel awards or contracts based on bid mistakes when it is determined that such action is in the best interest of the state. Such action shall be supported by a written determination made by the Commissioner. This rule [this section] shall also apply to competitive sealed proposals.
