Procurement
GTA is responsible for enterprise technology contracts providing products and services to all state agencies. We also advise agencies about planning and preparing their technology-related procurements. GTA helps agencies evaluate vendor responses.

GTA is proceeding with a plan to transform state government's IT operations. The plan - Georgia Infrastructure Transformation (GAIT) 2010 - calls for consolidating IT infrastructure and moving both infrastructure and telecommunications delivery to external service providers.
GTA issued Requests for Proposal (RFPs) on April 21, 2008, to potential service providers who pre-qualified to bid on contracts for GAIT 2010. Because GTA's pre-qualified service providers are the only service providers authorized to bid on the RFPs, proposals will not be solicited from the general public on the State Procurement Registry.
For more information about GAIT 2010, go to Initiatives & Programs > State Technology Transformation.
If your agency's procurement is less than $9,999:
- All IT procurements, regardless of cost, must meet GTA standards and policies.
- Please complete your procurement according to the DOAS State Purchasing Manual. You may use GTA Cooperative Purchasing Agreements; GTA Statewide Contracts; GSA Schedule 70 or GTA Sourcing.
If your agency's procurement is between $10,000 and $100,000:
- All IT procurements, regardless of cost, must meet GTA standards and policies.
- Please send your request to the DOAS State Purchasing Office, which will either manage the procurement or delegate procurement authority back to you.
