The Goods and Services Bulletin is a weekly publication containing solicitations for the procurement
of commodities and services (which, generally, are unrelated to construction of public facilities). State purchases of goods and
procurements of certain services or consultants are published, while municipal contracts exceeding $100,000 are required to be
advertised pursuant to the Uniform Procurement Act (M.G.L. c. 30B). Notices advertising sole source procurements and the availability
of surplus property are also published in the Bulletin.
