The approval process seems to have a lot of different options for approval. Who approves what?
The State Procurement Board has provided public authorities with a “procurement authority” that enables procurement to be undertaken up to a specified dollar value without the need for Board approval. A procurement authority may range from $110,000 up to $11m, depending on the business need of the public authorities. The Approvals Process Policy requires Board approval for procurement in excess of a public authority’s procurement authority.
