Procurement Policy Board

Ang Procurement Policy Board establishes and interprets rules governing how the State of Hawaii purchases goods, services, and construction through the Hawaii Public Procurement Code. The board issues policy directives, hears appeals from vendors and agencies, and ensures that state purchasing is conducted fairly, transparently, and in compliance with the law. It plays a central role in maintaining integrity and competition in Hawaii's government contracting process.

Billions of dollars in state contracts flow through the procurement system this board governs, affecting which businesses get state work and whether taxpayer money is spent wisely. Vendors who believe procurement rules were violated can bring complaints to the board, and the public can follow its decisions on major contracts.
