Overview
Establishes an online posting requirement for state government units entering task order

An invitation to bid must include a purchase description and all contractual terms and
conditions applicable to procurement. Adequate public notice of an invitation to bid must be
given at a reasonable time before the date for open bidding. Amount and bidder name must
be recorded and be open to public inspection after the contract has been awarded. The
contract must be awarded to the lowest responsible and responsive bidder whose bid conforms
to the requirements prescribed by the bid invitation (A.R.S. § 41-2533).
