§273.207 How does a contractor request dispute resolution?
The contractor may request dispute resolution in writing to the BIE Director.

(1) The ADR process is intended to be a supplement to, and not a replacement for, the normal appeal process.
(2) Participation as a complainant in the ADR process is voluntary.
(3) Should a contractor participate in an ADR process, the pre-complaint process may extend to 90 days.
(b) The ADR process may result in an informal resolution of the complaint;
(c) If the ADR process does not result in an informal resolution of the complaint, the contractor still has the right to continue to pursue an appeal.
