Purchases of equipment and services shall be in a manner providing maximum open and free competition. Procurement shall be made by one of the following methods: Small purchase procedures are those relatively simple and informal procurement methods for securing services, and supplies, that does not exceed $250,000 in the aggregate. If small purchase procedures are used for procurement under the grant, written quotes must be obtained and documented from at least three (3) qualified sources. These procedures are generally used for the acquisition of relatively small standardized items such as computers. Competitive negotiation (request for proposal or other competitive process) is one method that can be used to procure goods or services that cost more than $250,000. A request for proposal (RFP) is publicized, negotiations are conducted with more than one of the sources submitting offers, and either a fixed-price cost-reimbursable type contract is awarded, as appropriate. The following requirements apply to competitive negotiations: RFP’s must be publicized and identify all evaluation factors and their relative importance. Any response to publicized RFP’s shall be honored to the maximum extent possible. Proposals must be solicited from at least three (3) qualified sources. Grantees must have a method for conducting technical evaluations of the proposals received and for selecting vendors. Awards must be made to the responsible firm (individual) who proposal is most advantageous to the program, with price and other factors considered. Competitive sealed bids (formal advertising) can also be used for procurement over $250,000. Bids are publicly solicited and a firm, fixed-price contract (lump sum or unit price) is awarded to the responsible bidder, whose bid, conforming to all material terms and conditions of the invitation for bids, is the lowest price. Procurement by sealed bids under a grant will be accomplished through the use of state purchasing procedures or an equivalent local established procurement procedure. Non-competitive negotiation (sole-source justification) is procurement through the solicitation of a proposal from only one source or after solicitation of a number of sources when competition is determined inadequate. Prior approval by DOL-POST is required for all non-competitive procurement. 10.Payments. Payments shall be made in accordance with the provisions set forth in the Small Dollar Grant Award and applicable State Controller Fiscal Rules and DOL-POST disbursement procedures. Payments to Grantee are limited to the unpaid obligated balance of the Small Dollar Grant Award.

Payment requests must be submitted with cost documentation (receipts, invoices, canceled checks) and proof of attendance (if attending training).
