(1)The corporation shall conduct all procurements in accordance with procedures
which are not inconsistent with the provisions of KRS Chapter 45A, and this
chapter, this chapter being deemed to control in the event that, and to the extent
that, any provision in this chapter is expressly inconsistent with any provision of
KRS Chapter 45A; or the corporation shall adopt administrative regulations
establishing its procurement procedures. If the corporation elects to promulgate
administrative regulations establishing its procurement procedures rather than
conduct procurements in accordance with the provisions of KRS Chapter 45A, the
corporation may include sections of KRS Chapter 45A as part of its administrative
regulations. However, major lottery-specific procurements for personal service
contracts shall not be subject to the requirements of KRS 45A.695(2)(b), due to the
unique operational activities conducted for state government by the corporation as
recognized in KRS 154A.020. The corporation's procurement procedures or
administrative regulations shall be designed to provide for the purchase of supplies,
equipment, services, and construction items that provide the greatest long term
benefit to the state, the greatest integrity for the corporation, and the best service
and products, for the public.
(2)In its bidding and negotiation processes, the corporation may do its own bidding
and procurement, or may utilize the services of the Finance and Administration
Cabinet, or a combination thereof. The president of the corporation may, in lieu of
the secretary of finance, declare an emergency for purchasing purposes.
