Pre-qualified contractors wishing to respond may then submit their names and proposals with bids within the specified time period.

A LAND DIVISION selection committee will evaluate the proposals and bids, then offer a contract to the lowest bid and/or proposal that offers the \u201Dbest value\u201D to the State. \u201DBest value\u201D means the most advantageous offer determined by evaluating and comparing all relevant criteria in addition to price so that the offer meeting the overall combination that best serves the State is selected.
