VENDOR SELECTION
§ 2430.31. Generally.
(a) The district office shall select a blind person as a potential vendor for the Business Enterprise Program (BEP) during the time the individual is engaged in a vocational rehabilitation program. The selection shall be made in accordance with the standard procedure for the vocational rehabilitation program with the appropriate entries completed on the IWRP. The Office of Blindness and Visual Services (BVS) will provide the selected potential vendor with necessary services, including special training as preparation for placement as a full time operator of a facility.
(b) The training of a potential vendor consists of a formal course of practical instruction followed by a probationary period of 90 days on the job as the vendor at a facility. Upon the successful completion of the probationary period, BVS will issue a qualified vendor certificate which is the sole valid authorization for the vendor to participate in the program as the operator of a facility.
