Procurement Risk Assessment
We are the statewide authority for all state purchases of goods and services. We delegate purchasing authority for goods and services to state agencies based on a procurement risk assessment.
We updated the risk assessment process to achieve these goals:
- Improve the efficiency of the process to be able to assess agencies’ delegated authority in a timely manner.
- More clearly define and communicate how the risk assessment is administered so agencies better understand the process and how we use the information.
- Improve customer satisfaction with the process.
The updated 2024 risk assessment project:
- View the contract audit scoring rubric.
- View the implementation plan.
- View the agency review schedule.
