State Purchasing COVID-19 Response
State governments throughout the United States are responding to the spread of the 2019 novel coronavirus (COVID-19). The State of Georgia is no exception to this effort. Thus, to assist our clients, the State Purchasing Division has developed this special site.
The information below provides agencies with guidelines and resources that may be helpful in responding to issues and questions related to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19). These guidelines will be adjusted as we continue to learn more about the spread and impacts of COVID-19.
DOAS State Purchasing is continuing all operations during the COVID-19 pandemic. We will post any changes to policy or processes on this page.
