Pursuant to ORS 279C.430 and this Rule, two types of prequalification are <br />authorized: <br />a) Mandatory Prequalification. A Contracting Agency may, by rule, resolution, ordinance, or <br />other law or regulation, require mandatory prequalification of Offerors on forms <br />prescribed by the Contracting Agency's Purchasing Agent. A Contracting Agency must <br />indicate in the Solicitation Document if it will require mandatory prequalification. <br />Mandatory prequalification is when a Contracting Agency conditions a Person's <br />submission of an Offer upon the Person's prequalification. The Contracting Agency shall <br />not consider an Offer from a Person that is not prequalified if the Contracting Agency <br />required prequalification.
