The document outlines the formal procurement processes for Request for Proposals (RFP) and Invitation to Bid (ITB) for supplies, services, or professional services with a price of procurement greater than $100,000. It details the minimum competition required, forms used by agencies, public notice requirements, award methods, and the necessary documentation to be kept in the procurement file. The RFP process involves issuing formal RFPs, using Competitive Sealed Proposals (CSP) if advantageous, and ensuring compliance with evaluation criteria, preferences for Alaskan vendors, and specific requirements for professional services. On the other hand, the ITB process focuses on issuing formal ITBs, using Standard Terms and Conditions, and awarding to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder while considering various preferences for Alaskan products and services. Both processes emphasize the importance of adhering to statutory regulations, obtaining necessary approvals, and maintaining detailed procurement records.
