DEPARTMENT OF TECHNOLOGY REVIEW OF PROCUREMENT DOCUMENTS - 5211

The California Department of Technology (Department of Technology) Information Technology Project Oversight Division (ITPOD) may decide to review specifications in procurement documents before they are advertised to ensure that the specifications are consistent with the requirements and specifications identified in the Project Approval Lifecycle Stage/Gate deliverables (see SIMM Section 19) or Special Project Reports (SPR) for the projects.  The Department of Technology’s decision to review procurement documents will be based on whether it believes a project requires special oversight during the procurement process.  Procurement documents that the Department of Technology determines are subject to its oversight under this section may not be released until the Department of Technology has approved their release.
