Certification as a minority-, women-owned or service-disabled veteran business enterprise gives a vendor preference in the situation of a tied bid.

All purchases should have a review process including program and

awarded by competitive sealed bidding.
In Rule 60A-1.002 F.A.C., purchases less than Category Two but above
$2500 must obtain at least two quotes.
Service purchases more than $65,000 shall have legal approval.
Purchases less than $2500 must be completed using sound purchasing
practices.
