2: Procurement Process
Open the Procurement Process Other Information:
Government procurement has become synonymous with fraud and inefficiency. I will eradicate this longstanding trend by introducing
transparency to the procurement process. Like the federal BetterBuy Project, our administration will offer citizens a way
to submit, comment on, and vote on ideas for making our state’s procurement process more effective. I will put an end to hurried
"end of year" procurements, which have higher costs and inadequate competition, and build a repository to share market research
across government, in order to eliminate the existing duplication of the same research efforts. My administration will also
update the prices in the state’s Master Pricing List and make it accessible to municipalities. This will create a more open
and competitive procurement process, resulting in an economy of scale that will benefit taxpayers at both the municipal and
state levels.
