45A.115 Prequalification of suppliers.
The secretary of the Finance and Administration Cabinet may provide for
prequalification of suppliers as responsible prospective contractors for particular
types of supplies, services, and construction. The secretary of the Finance and
Administration Cabinet shall not prequalify a supplier as a responsible prospective
contractor until the supplier provides the secretary with his sworn statement made
under penalty of perjury that he has not knowingly violated any provision of the
campaign finance laws of the Commonwealth and that the award of a contract to the
supplier will not violate any provision of the campaign finance laws of the
Commonwealth. "Knowingly" means, with respect to conduct or to a circumstance
described by a statute defining an offense, that a person is aware or should have
been aware that his conduct is of that nature or that the circumstance exists.
Solicitation lists of potential contractors of such supplies, services, and construction
shall include but shall not be limited to such prequalified suppliers. Prequalification
shall not foreclose a written determination:
(1) Between the time of the bid opening or receipt of offers and the making of an
award, that a prequalified supplier is not responsible; or
(2) That a supplier who is not prequalified at the time of bid opening or receipt of
offers is responsible.
