procurement or make an award by item, part or portion of an item, group of items, or total Proposal.
11. PUBLIC DISCLOSURE OF BID OR PROPOSAL SUBMISSIONS:
11.1. Generally, the full contents of any bid or proposal (including all materials submitted in connection with it,
such as attachments, exhibits, addenda, and vendor presentations) become public information upon
completion of final contract or purchase order negotiations with the selected vendor. Certain information
concerning bids or proposals, including but not limited to pricing or scoring, is generally available to the
public even before this time, in accordance with the provisions of NH RSA 21-G: 37.
11.2. To the extent consistent with applicable state and federal laws and regulations, as determined by the State,
including, but not limited to, NH RSA Chapter 91-A (the "Right-to-Know" Law), the State shall, after final
negotiations with the selected vendor are complete, attempt to maintain the confidentiality of portions of a

redaction has been made. Submissions which do not conform to these instructions by failing to include a
redacted copy (if required), by failing to include a letter specifying the rationale for each redaction, by failing
to designate redactions in the manner required by these instructions, or by including redactions which are
contrary to these instructions or operative law may be rejected by the State as not conforming to the
requirements of the bid or proposal. The State will generally assume that a bid or proposal submitted without
an additional redacted copy contains no information which the bidder deems confidential. Bids and proposals
which contain no redactions, as well as redacted versions of submissions that have been accepted by the
State, may be released to the public, including by means of posting on State web sites.

that is not marked as indicated above, and that unmarked (or improperly marked) submissions may be
disseminated to any person, without limitation. Marking an entire bid, proposal, attachment, or full sections
thereof confidential without taking into consideration the public's right to know shall neither be accepted nor
honored by the State.

subject to public disclosure REGARDLESS of whether or not marked as confidential.

and if disclosure is not prohibited under NH RSA 21-G:37 or any other applicable law or regulation, bidders

which is not marked as confidential. In the case of bids, proposals or related materials that contain portions
marked confidential, the State shall assess what information it believes is subject to release; notify the bidder
that the request has been made; indicate what, if any, portions of the proposal or related material shall not be
released; and notify the bidder of the date it plans to release the materials. The State is not obligated to
comply with a bidder's designation regarding confidentiality. The State shall have no obligation to advise a
bidder that an individual or entity is attempting to electronically access, or has been referred to, materials
which have been made publicly available on the State's web sites.

of New Hampshire, at its sole expense, enjoining the release of the requested information, the State may
release the information on the date specified in the notice without any liability to the bidder.
