Does the EO apply to contracts with executive branch state agencies other than the Department of Administration?
Yes. The EO applies to all “agencies” as defined in Minn. Stat. 16C.02, Subd. 2: “‘Agency’ means any state officer, employee, board, commission, authority, department, entity, or organization of the executive branch of government. Unless otherwise provided elsewhere in this chapter, agency does not include the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities.
