Negotiation Under PCC Section 6611(b) - 902

When a critical business need develops and it is in the best interests of the state, DGS may negotiate amendments to the terms and conditions, including scope of work, of existing contracts for goods, services, information technology, and telecommunications, whether or not the original contract was the result of competition, on behalf of DGS or another state agency.

This is not intended to circumvent the NCB amendment process in Chapter 15 of this State Contract Manual.
