§ 4-13.6-5-6 — Maintenance services contracts

Indiana § 4-13.6-5-6

• Jurisdiction: Indiana
• Art. 13.6: STATE PUBLIC WORKS
• Ch. 5: Bidding Requirements

Text

The division may award a contract for
maintenance services for a system that is part of a public building,
improvement, or other structure without inviting bids under section 2
of this chapter. The division may award a contract for those services to
the manufacturer of the system or to a person recommended by the
manufacturer of the system. A contract may be awarded under this
section only upon a written determination by the commissioner that:
(1) the manufacturer of the system, or the person recommended
by the manufacturer, has knowledge of the system unlikely to be
shared by other persons potentially able to bid to provide the
maintenance services; and
(2) the savings to the state that might be obtained by inviting bids
for the maintenance services do not outweigh the benefits that the
state would gain by awarding a contract to the manufacturer of the
system or to a person recommended by the manufacturer of the
system.
