Department of Information Technology; procurement of information technology and telecommunications goods and services. Transfers the power to procure information technology goods and services of every kind from the Division of Purchases and Supply of the Department of General Services to the Department of Information Technology (DIT) and enables DIT to procure telecommunications goods and services of every kind (i) for its own benefit or on behalf of other state agencies and institutions or (ii) by such other agencies or institutions to the extent authorized by the Department of Information Technology. Procurements made in accordance with this provision must be made in accordance with the regulations specified in § 2.2-1111, unless DIT has adopted alternative regulations governing these procurements. By transferring the power to procure information technology goods and services, this bill moves the requirement that the procurement of computer equipment be based on performance-based specifications from § 2.2-1121 to a new § 2.2-1303.1. Provisions of the bill do not affect any authority delegated to state institutions of higher education in the 2002- 2004 appropriations act to purchase information technology facilities or services.
