agreement shall be filed with the committee prior to the effective date and shall be <br>accompanied by a completed proof of necessity form as established by the <br>committee by promulgation of an administrative regulation, or equivalent <br>information if submitted electronically. The proof of necessity form shall document: <br>(a) The need for the service or benefit to the Commonwealth of the tax incentive
agreement;
(b) For personal service contracts and memoranda of agreement, the
unavailability of state personnel or the nonfeasibility of utilizing state <br>personnel to perform the service;
(c) The total projected cost of the contract or agreement and source of funding; <br>(d) The total projected duration of the contract or tax incentive agreement; <br>(e) Payment information, in detail; <br>(f) In the case of memoranda of agreement or similar device, the reason for
exchanging resources or responsibilities; and
(g) Such other information as the committee deems appropriate.
(3) Adequate notice of the need for a personal service contract shall be given by the
contracting body through a request for proposals.

(4) The head of the contracting body or his or her designee may conduct discussions
with any offeror who has submitted a proposal to determine the offeror's <br>qualifications for further consideration. Discussions shall not disclose any <br>information derived from proposals submitted by other offerors.
(5) Award shall be made to the offeror determined by the head of the contracting body,
or his or her designee, to be the best qualified of all offerors based on the evaluation <br>factors set forth in the request for proposals and the negotiation of fair and <br>reasonable compensation. If compensation cannot be agreed upon with the best <br>qualified offeror and if proposals were submitted by one (1) or more other offerors <br>determined to be qualified, negotiations may be conducted with the other offeror or <br>offerors in the order of their respective qualification ranking. In this case, the <br>contract may be awarded to the next best ranked offeror for a fair and reasonable <br>compensation.

documentation shall be maintained concerning the final results of negotiation with <br>each vendor and reasoning as to why each vendor was chosen.
(6) The committee shall maintain a record or have readily accessible records of the date
on which each personal service contract, tax incentive agreement, and memorandum <br>of agreement was received and shall maintain or have access to electronic or paper <br>files on all personal service contracts, tax incentive agreements, and memoranda of <br>agreement.

All personal service contracts, <br>tax incentive agreements, and memoranda of agreement shall contain a provision <br>that stipulates that payments on personal service contracts and memoranda of <br>agreement shall not be authorized for services rendered after committee <br>disapproval, unless the decision of the committee is overridden by the secretary of <br>the Finance and Administration Cabinet or agency head, if the agency has been <br>granted delegation authority.
(8) In the event of a governmental emergency as defined under KRS 45A.690, work
may begin prior to filing notification of the personal service contract with the <br>committee, if the secretary of the Finance and Administration Cabinet or his <br>designee determines that the time involved in the normal review process would be <br>detrimental to the Commonwealth's ability to act or procure the services and the <br>normal process will not accommodate the governmental emergency. Payment shall <br>not be made until written notification and explanation of the reasons for this action <br>are forwarded to the committee.
(9) If a governmental emergency exists as defined under KRS 45A.690 and work is
authorized to begin on a personal service contact immediately, a copy of a <br>statement, approved by the secretary of the Finance and Administration Cabinet or <br>his designee, setting forth in detail the nature of the emergency shall be filed with <br>the committee, along with a copy of the personal service contract.

contract specifies a different submission time period.
