1.2.2.1. Intergovernmental Agreements
The Georgia Constitution authorizes state entities to enter into an intergovernmental agreement if the items to be acquired are available from that source.
An intergovernmental agreement is a contract between two or more government entities. Permissible government entities include state and local (county, city, etc.) government entities within the state of Georgia as well as other states of the United States of America. Intergovernmental agreements do not require approval from SPD
or competitive bidding and are not subject to dollar limits.
NOTE: To be considered exempt from the competitive bidding requirements of the State Purchasing Act, the good or service must be materially provided by the other governmental entity and not passed through the governmental entity by a private third party.
