of the California State Lottery, created by this chapter. However,
this section does not preclude procurements which integrate functions
such as game design, supply, advertising, and public relations. In
all procurement decisions, the director shall, subject to the
approval of the commission, award contracts to the responsible
supplier submitting the lowest and best proposal that maximizes the
benefits to the state in relation to the areas of security,
competence, experience, and timely performance, shall take into
account the particularly sensitive nature of the California State
Lottery and shall act to promote and ensure integrity, security,
honesty, and fairness in the operation and administration of the
lottery and the objective of raising net revenues for the benefit of

(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, the
following shall apply to contracts or procurement by the lottery:
(1) To ensure the fullest competition, the commission shall adopt
and publish competitive bidding procedures for the award of any

hundred thousand dollars ($100,000). The competitive bidding
procedures shall include, but not be limited to, requirements for
submission of bids and accompanying documentation, guidelines for the

($100,000). The commission shall establish, as part of its bidding

Chapter 3 of Part 1 of Division 3 apply to the commission.

arrangements to utilize subcontracts with socially and economically
disadvantaged small business concerns. The subcontracting plans shall
delineate the nature and extent of the services to be utilized, and
those concerns or individuals identified for subcontracting if known.
It is the intention of the Legislature in enacting this section to

By July 1, 1986, the commission shall adopt proposal evaluation
procedures, criteria, and contract terms which are consistent with
the advancement of business opportunities for small business concerns
in the private business activities created by the California State
Lottery and which will achieve the most feasible and practicable
level of participation by socially and economically disadvantaged
small business concerns in its procurement programs. The proposal
evaluation procedures, criteria, and contract terms adopted shall be
reported in writing to both houses of the Legislature on or before
July 1, 1986.

disadvantaged persons include women, Black Americans, Hispanic
Americans, Native Americans (including American Indians, Eskimos,
Aleuts, and Native Hawaiians), Asian-Pacific Americans (including

Vietnam, Korea, Samoa, Guam, the United States Trust Territories of
the Pacific, Northern Marianas, Laos, Cambodia, and Taiwan), and
other minorities or any other natural persons found by the commission
to be disadvantaged.
The commission shall report to the Legislature by July 1, 1987,
