1. Except as otherwise provided in NRS 227.185, claims for supplies, materials, equipment and services purchased pursuant to the provisions of this chapter must, when approved by the Administrator, be paid in the same manner as other claims against the State are required to be paid.
2. The Administrator shall annually assess each using agency a fee for the procurement and inventory services provided by the Purchasing Division to the using agency. The fee must be based on the using agency’s use of the procurement and inventory services of the Purchasing Division during preceding years. The Administrator shall adjust the formula for calculating the fee each biennium.
3. If an agency is not a using agency, the Administrator shall assess a fee of not more than the cost to the Purchasing Division to process the order for the agency.
4. If the Purchasing Division has obtained supplies, materials, equipment or services pursuant to a single contract or order from a vendor on behalf of two or more using agencies or governmental entities which have obtained supplies, materials, equipment or services on a voluntary basis from the Purchasing Division pursuant to NRS 333.469 or 333.470, or any combination thereof, the Administrator may assess and collect from the vendor an administrative fee in an amount not to exceed 4 percent of the total cost of the supplies, materials, equipment or services.
5. The administrative fee collected pursuant to subsection 4 may be used by the Administrator to offset the operating expenses of the Purchasing Division, including, without limitation, the implementation and maintenance of a system of on-line bidding or a computer system for the management and reporting of the procurement process.
6. The Administrator may adopt regulations to carry out the provisions of this section.
7. As used in this section, “on-line bidding” has the meaning ascribed to it in NRS 333.313.
