What is the Model Procurement Code?
The Kentucky Model Procurement Code (MPC) is a state law codified in Chapter 45A, requiring subdivisions of the Commonwealth of Kentucky to follow certain procedures when purchasing goods and services. A local public agency, such as city or county, by ordinance may choose to adopt a portion of the MPC. KRS 45A.343 is the statute allowing a city/county to adopt KRS 45A.345-360, which upon adoption must be followed in purchasing.
