Regulations of Connecticut State Agencies
In discharging its overall responsibility to provide a broad range of central services to other agencies of the executive branch of state government, the department is authorized by law to enter into contracts for the procurement of various goods and services and for the purchase, sale, or acquisition of real and personal property or interests therein. The rights and remedies of all persons contracting with the state through the commissioner of administrative services are as prescribed by applicable provisions of the General Statutes including the statutes respecting claims against the state, and the commissioner may, in his or her lawful discretion, decline to grant formal hearings or other review procedures in cases where the person requesting a hearing or other review is not required by law to make an exhaustion of administrative remedies. This regulation shall apply, without limitation, to all constructions contracts and other contracts which expressly provide that disputes thereunder shall be referred to arbitration under the rules of the American Arbitration Association.
