Step 2: Following Procurement Regulations
The Education Department General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR) establish minimum standards for the procurement of services to ensure that procurement transactions provide full and open competition for services. Grantees can use their own procurement procedures which reflect State and local laws and regulations to the extent that those procedures are consistent with the Federal requirements and at a minimum meet the requirements outlined in 34 C.F.R. 80.36.
