The Authority reserves the right to short list Proposers, invite Proposers for an interview/demonstration either by phone, video, or in person and/or to request best and final offers. The Authority is not required to select the lowest cost Proposal, but rather, the Proposal deemed to be in the best interest of the Authority. To the extent that this RFP is subject to statutory bidding requirements as stated elsewhere in the RFP, such statutory bidding requirements shall supersede any conflicting provisions herein. The Authority will not award the Agreement to any Proposer who is not capable, in the Authority's judgment, of satisfactorily and responsibly performing the work required under this Request for Proposals. No costs of responding to this Request for Proposals, any addenda or other documents or attendance at meetings in connection with this Request for Proposals shall be reimbursed by the Authority. Any information provided to the Authority in any Proposal or other written or oral communication between the Proposer and the Authority will not be, or deemed to have been, proprietary or confidential, even if marked assuch, although the Authority will use reasonable efforts not to disclose such information to persons who are not employees or consultants retained by the Authority, except as may be required by M.G.L. c.66, the Massachusetts Public Records Law.
