Rule 665-2-3-.01. Types of Specifications

There shall be two general types of specifications. A standard specification shall be originated and developed by GTA or any other agency or commission, statutorily authorized to develop standards. It shall be comprehensive in nature, intended for repeated use and may be changed, as quickly and as often as is necessary, to address changes in the technology marketplace. An example of this type of specification is one that complies with the required statewide Technical Architecture as developed by the GTA for statewide use. The other general type of specification shall be originated by the user and modified as necessary by GTA to accomplish the overall efforts to manage the area of information technology effectively. This type of specification may include, but is not limited to,"brand name or equal" or "brand specific" technical and functional specifications. Cite as Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. R. 665-2-3-.01
