  10501.  Except as otherwise provided in this article, the Regents of the University of California shall let any contract for a project to the lowest responsible bidder or else reject all bids. However, if one or more of the bids is substantially equal to the lowest bid, and at least one of those bidders is a disadvantaged business enterprise, a women business enterprise, or a disabled veteran business enterprise, the regents may award the contract in accordance with the policies and procedures adopted pursuant to Section 10500.5. If the regents deem it to be for the best interest of the university, the regents may, on the refusal or failure of the successful bidder for a project to execute a tendered contract, award it to the second lowest responsible bidder. If the second lowest bidder fails or refuses to execute the contract, the regents may likewise award it to the third lowest responsible bidder. (Amended by Stats. 1990, Ch. 516, Sec. 3.)
