Master Price Agreements - Contract Administrative Fee

Legislation - 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.

Invoicing – If a vendor is awarded a Purchase Agreement for an MPA Contract, the Vendor is responsible to collaborate with their organization’s accounting team to advise of the State’s process of withholding the MPA 1% Contract Administrative Fee as follows:

1.Vendors shall invoice the State in full at time of services rendered and/or goods delivered.

2.Upon approval, the State will pay the invoice, less the 1% administrative fee amount.

The legislative mandate requires the collected funds to be deposited into a restricted receipt account and the State complies with this by way of the State’s financial system withholding and transfer of those funds to the appropriate account at time of invoice payment.

Quarterly Self-Reporting - Vendors must submit a report to the Division of Purchases on a quarterly basis that delineates all invoiced amounts expended under the applicable MPA within 45 days of the close of each calendar quarter
