Outsourcing (Public Contract Code section 12147) Sample Clauses
The Outsourcing clause under Public Contract Code section 12147 governs the conditions under which a public agency may contract with external vendors for services or functions that could otherwise be performed internally. This clause typically outlines the requirements for justifying outsourcing, such as demonstrating cost savings, efficiency improvements, or the need for specialized expertise not available within the agency. It may also require a formal evaluation process and documentation to ensure compliance with statutory guidelines.
