2 AAC 12.110. Qualified products list

(a) A qualified products list may be developed with the approval of the chief procurement officer, or the commissioner of transportation and public facilities, if testing or examination of the supplies or construction items before issuance of the solicitation is desirable or necessary in order to best satisfy state requirements.

(b) When developing a qualified products list, a representative group of potential suppliers must be solicited, in writing, to submit products for testing and examination to determine acceptability for inclusion on a qualified products list. Any potential supplier, even though not solicited, may offer its products for consideration.

(c) Inclusion on a qualified products list must be based on results of tests or examinations conducted in accordance with state requirements. Test results may be made public in a manner that protects the confidentiality of the identity of the competitors, such as using numerical designations. Except as otherwise provided by law, trade secrets, test data, and similar information provided by the supplier will be kept confidential if requested in writing by the supplier.

(d) The existence of a qualified products list does not constitute prequalification of any prospective supplier of prequalified products.
