Procurement guidance
The purpose of this guidance is to provide grantees with the resources and requirements needed in procurements for services or supplies, or where State or FTA-funded facilities or assets are used in revenue contracts. We provide the same level of guidance and requirements for all procurements, regardless if granted with federal or state funds.
We, as a State recipient of federal and state grant funds, are responsible for ensuring that sub-recipients and/or grantees are aware of and comply with procurement requirements. All procurement transactions must be conducted in a manner that provides full and open competition.
Procurement processes will vary based on the type and amount of the supply, equipment, product or service. Each method for procurement is listed below, by clicking on the specific method sample documents are provided to complete your procurement. Prior to solicitation and contract signatures, sub-recipients and/or grantees must provide their completed documents for our review and Notice to Proceed. It is the responsibility of all sub-recipients and/or grantees to plan in advance of procurements to allow necessary time in review, DBE goal setting and approvals.
