The Georgia Department of Administrative Services (DOAS) has issued an important update regarding the current statewide contracts for Lenovo, covering end user computing and infrastructure.
In response to the implementation of House Bill 113, which grants the Georgia Technology Authority (GTA) the authority to maintain a list of prohibited technology suppliers, DOAS has been advised that Lenovo has been deemed a prohibited supplier. For additional information, refer to the Prohibited Software & Services (SS-22-002) | Enterprise Policies, Standards, and Guidelines.
Effective July 1, no new purchases of Lenovo products may be processed, regardless of the purchasing method or vendor. This includes purchases made directly through Lenovo as well as through third-party resellers or other procurement channels. Any existing purchases that have already been made may move forward as planned.
