CaliforniaSchool districts: contracting: purchases for child nutrition programs.
What it does
Existing law requires a school district approved to operate at least one federal nonprofit child nutrition program to make procurement bid solicitations and awards for purchases in support of those programs consistent with specified federal procurement standards. Existing law requires these awards to be let to the most responsive and responsible party, and further requires that price be the primary consideration, but not the only determining factor.
More detail
This bill would eliminate the requirement that price be the primary consideration, but not the only determining factor. The bill would also modify the specified federal procurement standards a school district is required to be consistent with when making procurement bid solicitations and awards.
