If ODOT rejects all Offers, ODOT will retain all such Offers as part of ODOT's solicitation file. (3) Cancellation of Award. Without liability to ODOT, ODOT may cancel award of Contract at any time before the Contract agreement is executed by all parties to the Contract, upon finding it is in the public interest to do so.
