HB 1270 -- State Purchases

Sponsor:  Smith (118)

This bill allows the Commissioner of the Office of
Administration to use the reverse auction procurement method to
purchase goods and nonprofessional services if the commissioner
believes the method will result in state savings.  The reverse
auction procurement method allows bidders to bid on specified
goods or nonprofessional services through real-time electronic
bidding.  Bidders' prices are revealed, and bidders have an
opportunity to modify their bid prices during the bidding period.

The bill also repeals obsolete provisions of Chapter 34, RSMo.
