State goals for procurements and public contracts ACTIVE

The commissioner of administration shall establish annual goals for small entrepreneurship participation in state procurements and public contracts. The commissioner shall determine the appropriate level and number of goals for each year. The formulation of each goal shall be based on historical procurement and public contracting data and any other factors which the commissioner deems useful. As part of development of goals, the commissioner may consider the capacity of small entrepreneurships available to participate in meeting goals, which may be determined based on past experience, available small entrepreneurship certifications, and recognized industry composition. The commissioner shall provide guidance to agencies with respect to estimation of dollar values for anticipated procurement and contract activity to be used in the development of a goal. Agencies shall report any data required by the commissioner in this regard in accordance with a schedule established by the commissioner.
