After contract award, the SOQs shall be open for public inspection except to the extent that the withholding of information is permitted or required by law. If the Proposer designates a portion of its SOQ as confidential, it shall isolate and identify in writing the confidential portions in accordance with Arizona Administrative Code R2-7-103 and shall be included in the SOQ. Upon receipt of written notification, MAG will review any portions of the SOQ that the Proposer considers to be confidential and will then make a determination on what should be released.
