• Master Price Agreement Contract Administrative Fee:

In 2017, the General Assembly amended the “State Purchases Act”, R. I. Gen. Laws § 37-2-12 (b) to authorize the Chief Purchasing Officer to establish, charge and collect from vendors listed on master price agreements (“MPA”) a contract administrative fee not to exceed one percent (1%) of the total value of the annual spend against their MPA contracts. All contract administrative fees collected from MPA vendors shall be deposited into a restricted receipt account which shall be used for the purposes of implementing and maintaining an online eProcurement system and other costs related to State procurement. In accordance with this legislative initiative the Division of Purchases is upgrading the State procurement system through the purchase and installation of an eProcurement system.

The contract administrative fee shall be applicable to all purchase orders issued relative to State MPA contracts. Therefore, effective January 1, 2020, all MPA contracts shall be assessed the 1% contract administrative fee.
