The

reduce

finds
and
declares
that
group
discount
purchasing,
cooperative
purchasing,
36
and
shared
contracts
may
enable
the
state
to
procure
property
for
reduced
37
cost.
It
is
the
intent
of
the
legislature
to
authorize
such
activities
in
a
38
manner
that
allows
flexibility
to
modify
underlying
contracts
when
the
modi

39
fication,
in

administrator's
judgment,
would
serve
