Copy as parenthetical citation

(a) Unless otherwise provided by law, when the head of any state department desires any items of personal property or nonprofessional services, or other articles of use or necessity, application shall be made therefor to the Division of Purchasing, stating by items the articles desired and needed, the fund that will pay for their purchase, that the articles are necessary, that the amount of the requisition is not excessive, and that no part of the requisition will be used except in conducting the public business. The application shall be kept on file in the office of the Division of Purchasing.

(b) For any application, requisition, or other document submitted to the Division of Purchasing which requires the signature of the head of any state department, any public employee or public official, or his or her designee, the Purchasing Agent may accept an electronic signature or other electronic indicia of the required signature. The Purchasing Agent may prescribe by written policy the types of electronic signatures and the methods for providing and affixing electronic signatures. The submission of documents containing approved electronic signatures or other electronic indicia does not relieve the department head, public employee, or public official of the responsibility for the accuracy of certifications otherwise required by law or rule and he or she shall be accountable as if the document were personally signed and attested to before a notary public.
