Mississippi Administrative Code
Title 12 - Finance and Administration
Part 9 - Office of Personal Service Contract Review Rules and Regulations
Chapter 7 - REQUESTS FOR APPLICATIONS AND CONTRACT WORKERS
Section 12-9-7.2 - Request for Applications

Universal Citation: MS Code of Rules 12-9-7.2

Current through September 24, 2024

A Request for Applications ("RFA") is the most commonly used method of procurement when the procuring Agency is seeking a contract worker.

7.2.1 Limitations on Use

An RFA is not an allowable method of procurement to contract with an independent contractor. RFAs may only be used to procure WIN contract workers as defined in Section 7.1. Prior to issuing an RFA, a written determination that the Agency needs a contract worker - as opposed to an independent contractor - shall be maintained in the Agency Procurement File.

7.2.2 Content of the Request for Applications

The only information required to be included in the Request for Applications is that which is required to be included in the public notice. See Section 7.3.1. Agencies may include any other information the Agency deems relevant.

Specifications shall not be unduly restrictive, but instead shall seek to promote overall economy for the purposes intended and encourage competition in satisfying the Agency's needs.
