Justification for Deviations from the Virginia Public Procurement Act. Pursuant to 127 § 23.1-1017 of the Act and subject to the provisions of this management agreement, the University may 128 be exempt from the provisions of the Virginia Public Procurement Act (VPPA), Chapter 43 (§ 2.2-4300
Justification for Deviations from the Virginia Public Procurement Act. Pursuant to § 23-38.110 of the Act and subject to the provisions of this Management Agreement, the College may be exempt from the provisions of the Virginia Public Procurement Act (VPPA), Chapter 43 (§ 2.2-4300 et seq.) of Title 2.2 of the Code of Virginia. Any procurement policies or rules that deviate from the VPPA must be uniform across all institutions governed by Subchapter 3 of the Act, and the Board of Visitors shall adopt and comply with procurement policies that are based upon competitive principles and seek competition to the maximum practical degree. The Policy Governing the Procurement of Goods, Services, Insurance, and Construction, and the Disposition of Surplus Materials and the Rules Governing Procurement of Goods, Services, Insurance, and Construction (the Procurement Rules) attached to that Policy as Attachment 1 constitute the policies and uniform deviations from the VPPA required by subsections A and B of § 23-38.110 of the Act. Subsection D of § 23-38.110 of the Act requires that the College identify the public, educational, and operational interests served by any procurement rule or rules that deviate from those in the VPPA. The adopted Board of Visitors policy on procurement and the Procurement Rules provide the College with the autonomy to administer its procurement process while fully adhering to the principle that competition should be sought to the maximum extent feasible. This autonomy will better position the College to support the requirements of its growing teaching, research and outreach missions. Greater autonomy in procurement will improve internal capacity to respond quickly to emergent material and service issues and, therefore, enable the College to be more efficient and effective in meeting the Commonwealth’s goals for institutions of higher education. In some instances, costs will be reduced. Taken collectively, the College’s procurement policies and rules that differ from those required by the VPPA will enhance procurement “best practices” as they currently are being observed within the higher education community nationally. Further, these changes will provide efficiencies to both the College and public sector suppliers.
