7.6. Step 5 – State’s Ongoing Contract Management
In addition to monitoring the suppliers’ contract performance and managing acceptance and payment for goods and services, the contract administrator is also responsible for facilitating the following tasks as applicable:
- Contract amendments (change order process),
- Renewals,
- Extensions,
- Assignments, and
- Terminations, as applicable.
State entities and suppliers are required to cooperate in good faith throughout the contract process. The issuing officer or contract administrator must clearly document in writing all changes to a contract over the life of the contract.
The contract administrator must use SPD-CP007 Contract Action Summary Form to document changes and upload to the contracts module of Team Georgia Marketplace™ or a similar tool to document contract actions.
