1. The office of management and budget shall establish and maintain a procurement
information website on the internet. This procurement information website must
provide current information regarding North Dakota government procurement
opportunities in order to inform potential vendors of the commodities and services
sought by state agencies and institutions. Notwithstanding section 54-44.4-09, for
each purchase of services or commodities over the amount established for small

purchases, the office of management and budget and every purchasing agency shall
provide procurement information on the website. The time period and manner of
providing procurement information on the website must be in accordance with rules
adopted by the office of management and budget. The office of management and
budget may contract with a third party to assist in providing or maintaining the
procurement information website.
2. In addition to other notice requirements provided by law, a state agency or institution
may elect to issue solicitation notices on the procurement information website for the
purchase of services and commodities that are not subject to the procurement
requirements of this chapter, including:
a. Commodities and services exempted under section 54-44.4-02;
b. Public improvements under title 48;
c. Architect, engineer, construction management, and land surveying services under
chapter 54-44.7; and

solicitation by ensuring only those sections from the standardized solicitation
documents applicable to the procurement are included.
4. The office of management and budget may make the procurement information website
available to government entities, including political subdivisions of the state and public
schools, for the purpose of issuance of solicitation notices that are in addition to any
other notice requirements provided by law.
