Background
At its April 9, 1999 meeting, the Board approved a revised Procurement
Policy and Procedure. Under the revised policy, RFPs and RFQs for budgeted
items over $50,000, which follow the standard evaluation criteria, no longer
require individual Governing Board approval. However, a monthly report of
all RFPs and RFQs over $50,000 is included as part of the Board agenda
package and the Board may, if desired, take individual action on any item.
The report provides the title and synopsis of the RFP or RFQ, the budgeted
funds available, the release date, the closing date, the type of evaluation
method, and the AQMD contact.
