The Virginia Public Procurement Act and subsequent Management Agreements require that purchases be handled in a manner which adheres to the integrity of the procurement process. The main factors determining how a procurement is handled are the anticipated dollar amount of the purchase, the type of good or service being sought, and the timeframe in which a particular item or service must be obtained.
