(B) Renegotiating, if not otherwise prohibited, contracts entered into before July 1, 2009, and especially those contracts in which a vendor is willing to reduce costs by fifteen per cent or more while maintaining substantial equivalency on other terms.

(C) With the approval of the director of administrative services, allowing contracts for critical services that are up for renewal to expire and be rebid.

(D) With the approval of the director of budget and management, cancelling all contracts entered into before July 1, 2009, that are supported by noncapital funds.

(E) Cooperatively purchasing supplies and services with other state agencies.

(F)Using other state agencies to provide needed services.

(G) Purchasing equipment and furniture in compliance with any control-on-equipment directive issued by the office of budget and management.

(H) Reducing parking expenses, including expenses for purchased and leased spaces for state agency employees, spaces for fleet vehicles, and spaces and parking reimbursement for state agency employees on agency business. The spending plan shall include a review of a loss of efficiency or other benefits related to the reduction in parking expenses.

By December 1, 2009, the director of budget and management shall issue guidance to each state agency on which spending plan strategies the agency is expected to implement for fiscal years 2010 and 2011.
