Kozak & Gayer Overturns Department of Health and Human Services Contract Award Decision
Kozak & Gayer's Julius Ciembroniewicz recently represented Youth & Family Services, a nonprofit provider of social services, in it's appeal of the Department's $600,000 Family Reunification Grant Award for Kennebec and Somerset Counties. Kozak & Gayer successfully overturned the erroneous scoring of the proposals after a hearing before a three-person panel appointed by the Maine Division of Purchases. The Appeals Panel concluded in a January 23, 2008 decision that Youth & Family Services had demonstrated by clear and convincing evidence that the Department's award of the contract to another bidder was erroneous. The Department will now issue a new RFP.
