(a) Whenever it appears advantageous to the state or any department, division, bureau, commission, board or other agency thereof to purchase or otherwise acquire any equipment, supplies, material or other property which may be offered for sale by the United States of America or any agency thereof, the state Purchasing Agent may, with the approval of the Governor and the Director of Finance, enter into a contract for such purchase with the federal government or with any federal agency charged with the sale or disposition of such equipment, supplies, material or other property, and, subject to the aforesaid approval, said state Purchasing Agent is hereby authorized to execute such contract or contracts.
(b) Subject to the approval of the Governor and the Director of Finance, the state Purchasing Agent may enter a bid or bids in behalf of any department, division, bureau, commission, board or other agency of the state at any sale of any equipment, supplies, material or other property offered for sale through written proposals by the United States of America or any agency thereof when it appears that it is to the interest of the state to do so.
(c) Should the regulations of the federal government, or any agency thereof handling the disposition and sale of any equipment, supplies, material or other property which it would be advantageous to the state to purchase, require that partial or full payment be made at the time sale is effected and before the equipment, supplies, material or other property will be delivered, or where such equipment, supplies, material or other property is sold under bids and the federal agency in charge of such sale requires a deposit in support of bids, the state Comptroller, upon requisition by the state Purchasing Agent, shall, with the approval of the Governor and the Director of Finance, draw a state warrant against the funds of such department or agency payable to the United States of America or its proper agency in such amount as may be necessary to meet the terms and conditions of sale without requiring a certificate showing that the equipment, supplies, material or other property has actually been delivered to the state department or other agency in whose behalf the purchase is being negotiated.
