Sec. 74.40  Purpose of procurement standards.

    Sections 74.41 through 74.48 set forth standards for use by 
recipients in establishing procedures for the procurement of supplies 
and other expendable property, equipment, real property and other 
services with Federal funds. These standards are established to ensure 
that such materials and services are obtained in an effective manner and 
in compliance with the provisions of applicable Federal statutes and 
executive orders. The standards apply where the cost of the procurement 
is treated as a direct cost of an award.
