Selection and Authorization of RFO i. After evaluation of the candidates presented in Contractor’s offer, the JBE may select Contractor’s offer if such offer best meets the needs of and provides the best value to the JBE. As discussed previously in Sections 1.2 and 2.2 above, the JBE will do this by entering into a Participating Addendum with Contractor, in the form attached as Appendix E to this Agreement. Protest provisions (including those that normally apply to RFPs) are not applicable to the RFO process.
ii. In the event the JBE has already entered into a Participating Addendum with Contractor based on a previous RFO, the JBE may at its sole option:
(i) amend the Participating Addendum to reflect the new RFO services; or
(ii) enter into a new Participating Addendum. This Agreement, including the new or amended Participating Addendum (including amended provisions specific to the Work under the new RFO), will govern the Work under the new RFO. It may, however, still be necessary to execute other applicable documents discussed above in Section 2.2, e.g., a purchase or work order.
