Section 105IAC11-2-5. Change in certificate of qualification

   (a) The prequalification committee may recommend to the commissioner a change in the certificate of qualification issued to a contractor based upon the receipt of additional information. Notification of a change in a certificate of qualification will be made in writing and will become effective after all avenues of appeal under section 9 of this rule are exhausted. If the action involves the addition of a classification or the increase of a rating to a certificate of qualification, the certificate will become effective on the date the commissioner signs it and will be in effect during the administrative appeal under section 9 of this rule.

  (b) A request from the contractor for a change in its qualification status must be in writing and received not less than fifteen (15) days prior to the bid opening date. An applicant who has been refused qualification, or who is dissatisfied with the department's decision as to the aggregate amount of uncompleted work to be permitted under contract at any one (1) time, or with any limitation as to the class or classes of work on which the bidder is authorized to bid, may at any time after the expiration of ninety (90) days from the date of the department's previous decision request a change in or file a new application for qualification.
