Reglamento 2207

This regulation, issued by the General Services Administration of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico on December 29, 1976, establishes the procedures for addressing challenges and reviews concerning public bids for government purchasing and contracting services. Based on Act Number 164 of July 23, 1974, its primary goal is to define the process for bidders, the Administration, and delegated agencies when an interested party files a petition. The document outlines two main types of petitions: "Impugnation," which challenges bid terms with the Assistant Administrator, and "Review," which seeks reevaluation of decisions by the Board of Awards or Assistant Administrator before the Board of Review. The Board of Review, consisting of at least three members appointed by the Administrator, serves as the ultimate authority for these appeals. It convenes as needed, with decisions made by a majority vote of members present. The Board's jurisdiction specifically covers the review of decisions made by the Assistant Administrator regarding bid invitations. However, it explicitly excludes the review of standard specifications approved by the Governing Board under the Purchase & Supply Act. This framework ensures a structured process for dispute resolution in government procurement.
