About this file

This is a State of Iowa eProcurement system resource document from the Iowa Department of Administrative Services describing the IMPACS (Iowa Management of Procurement and Contracts System) bidding platform. The document outlines the functionality and resources available through IMPACS, which integrates vendor management, contract administration, sourcing, and purchasing capabilities on the JAGGAER ONE platform. The system includes a Sourcing Module that facilitates vendor engagement, bid evaluations, and contract creation from sourcing events, with capabilities for unlimited document uploads (50MB per document), automated tabulation, and intelligent award analysis. The Contracts Module centralizes contract metadata, automates renewal and expiry alerts, enables online negotiation with full audit trails, and provides access to pre-defined contract clauses. IMPACS offers three two-hour virtual training classes covering Orientation/Dashboards/Purchasing, Solicitations, and Contracts, with support available through purchasing.mailbox@iowa.gov.

The document serves as a reference guide for state procurement personnel and vendors, providing links to instructional resources including the IMPACS Quick Reference Guide, Commodity Codes, RFQ/RFB/RFP Instructions, RFx NOIA and Award Instructions, vendor registration guides, and user onboarding forms. No specific pricing, set-asides, or contract terms are detailed in this system overview document, as it functions primarily as an informational resource describing the eProcurement platform's features and available training and support materials for Iowa state procurement activities.

Iowa Management of Procurement and Contracts System (IMPACS)

What is IMPACS?

Iowa Management of Procurement and Contracts System - IMPACS is the State of Iowa eProcurement system integrating multiple solutions on the JAGGAER ONE platform. lt integrates vendor, contract, sourcing and purchasing data all in one suite.

Sourcing Module

The Sourcing Module offers better engagement from vendors, creates easy-to-evaluate bid tabulations and keeps all documents, addenda and email correspondence in one place. Unlimited document upload (50MB per document), multiple approval workflow options and custom RFx creation templates allow for maximum flexibility. Create a contract or a PO from a sourcing event, saving time with data entry. Generate and display automated tabulation, what-if scenarios and intelligent award options. Analyze comprehensive data and constraints, including user-defined criteria, alternative bids, discounts and business rules.

Contracts Module

The Contracts Module allows you to centralize contract metadata, document milestones, and automate renewal and expiry alerts to significantly streamline the process used to manage your contracts. Custom contract creation templates, unlimited file upload (50MB per document) and multiple approval workflow options are but a few of the benefits of this system. Automate contract compliance with contract obligations that send out reminders to the vendors and users. One-click contract renewals eliminate the need to create a separate renewal contract.

With IMPACS Contracts, you can have a range of pre-defined clauses at your disposal for insertion into each contract. These clauses can be used to create a contract document that can then be shared between both parties for sign off and approval. Counter proposals from your suppliers are permitted, and when needed, amendments are sent to the correct internal approver for sign off - all via a single solution. Additionally, you can track the usage of each clause across your entire contract portfolio and know exactly which contracts rely on which clauses. This can help you understand the impact of changes to standard clauses and where updates to contract documents may be required if clause wording is changed. Online negotiation capabilities enable you to significantly reduce the cycle time required during a contract negotiation exercise with a full audit trail of every change.
