Protests A protest is defined as a written objection to a proposed award, or the award of a contract, with the intention of receiving a remedial result. In order to be considered valid, a protest must 1) come from an actual bidder or proposer for the contract, 2) who claims to be the rightful award recipient, 3) whose economic interest may be affected substantially and directly by the award of a contract or by the failure to award a contract. Suppliers or subcontractors to a bidder or proposer cannot file a valid protest. A valid protest can only be filed by a bidder or proposer which can show that it would be awarded the contract if the protest were successful. Therefore, all conditions numbered 1 through 3 listed above in this paragraph must be met.

The written protest for bids must be filed with the Contract Compliance Officer located on the 12th Floor, Finance Department, City Hall, 455 N Main, Wichita, KS prior to 9:00 a.m. of the Tuesday immediately following the posting of the notice of intent to award on the City’s Purchasing Bid Results site wichita.gov/purchasing.

The written protest for proposals must be filed with the Contract Compliance Officer located on the 12th Floor, Finance Department, City Hall, 455 N Main, Wichita, KS prior to 5:00 p.m. on the third business day following the day of issuing an email or written notification of award.

Our Mission as an exceptionally well-run city, we will: Keep Wichita safe; Grow our economy; build dependable

City of Wichita 10 RFB #260096

The Contract Compliance Officer will acknowledge receipt of the written protest. The written protest is to include the name, address, email address and telephone number of the protestor, identification of the solicitation number or contract number and project title, a detailed statement of the reasons for the protest which justify the relief sought, supporting evidence or documentation to substantiate any arguments, and a concise statement of the form of relief requested (e.g. reconsideration of the offer). All the above required information must be included in the protest at its submission. Untimely protests will be returned unopened. Incomplete protests will be rejected without consideration.

In the event of a valid, timely protest, the City shall not proceed with the execution of the contract until all City administrative remedies have been exhausted or waived, or until a determination is made that a contract award is required to protect the interests of the City.

The decision of the Contract Compliance Officer, based on review of the written protest and information available from City sources, will be rendered within ten (10) business days after receipt of protest, will recite the reasons for the decision, and be provided to the protestor by email or written notification.

The Internal Auditor decision will be issued by email or written notification, within ten (10) business days after receiving the written reconsideration, unless this time for a response is extended in writing and agreeable by both parties.

The Internal Auditor’s decision will be final, unless the protestor seeks a hearing before the City Council, by written request filed with the City Clerk, located on the 13th Floor, City Hall, 455 N Main, Wichita, KS, prior to 5:00 p.m. on the third business days after issuance of the Internal Auditor written decision.

Failure of a protestor to file a written reconsideration request related to the internal Auditor’s decision prior to 5:00 p.m. on the third business day deadline will invalidate that protest and cause it not to be considered.

If there is a timely written reconsideration request, the protestor may seek reconsideration of the decision of the Internal Auditor by means of a hearing before the City Council. This hearing must be in aid of the City Council’s legislative authority to approve contracts for goods, services, and public improvements on behalf of the City, and does not imply any due process right of the protestor in an unawarded, unexecuted contract. The hearing must be scheduled as soon as practicable according to the City Council’s calendar. The hearing must be granted only upon such facts and issues as are presented in writing to the City Clerk for submission to City Council at or before noon on the Thursday preceding the scheduled hearing.
