Quality Assurance (QA)
The DGS Procurement Quality Assurance Team acts as a liaison between internal staff, state agencies, and the supplier community to ensure the Commonwealth receives properly specified materials and services, while striving to maximize competition, at the best value. QA ensures the Commonwealth receives high quality materials and services they procure by performing inspections, testing, and auditing. Pennsylvania Commerical Items Descriptions (PCIDs) describe the requirements of various materials that the Commonwealth purchases. Contact the QA team by sending an email to RA-QA-DIVISION@pa.gov.
