Section 1895.10 - Cost of Service-Charge to Local Agency
Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 38, September 20, 2024
(a) The Department of General Services shall charge the local agency a percentage of the purchase price which shall be computed to be the average of the costs incurred in making purchases for that local agency. When it is necessary to assume extra costs for such items as consultant services, special equipment, lab fees, or similar non-routine costs, the average costs shall not be added to the purchase cost for purposes of determining whether the State can purchase at a lower price than can the local agency.
(b) If a local agency withdraws its request prior to the date the Office of Procurement mails bids or if the Office of Procurement finds that it cannot, for some reason, accept the request for processing, no charge shall be made except for special services rendered in accordance with the preceding sections. Full charge shall be made for the Office of Procurement costs if the local agency withdraws its request subsequent to bid mailing regardless of whether a purchase order is issued.
