§ 17-24-112. Pricing

1. The division shall fix and determine the prices at which all labor is performed and at which all goods and services produced are sold. Such prices for industry products shall be as near the prevailing market prices for similar goods and services and quality as is practical. Such prices, other than prices for agricultural products, shall not exceed the wholesale market prices for like articles and products in the case of sales to the state or its political subdivisions or the prevailing retail market prices for like articles and products in the case of sales to the general public.
2. The division shall prepare catalogs containing the description of all goods and services produced, with the price of each item. Copies of such catalogs shall be sent by the division to all state agencies and shall be available for political subdivisions of the state and the federal government.
3. The director shall ensure that the level of quality for goods and services produced is comparable to similar goods and services available from the private sector. The director shall determine if the quality of goods and services produced is approximately the same as the quality requested by the purchasing agencies and departments. The sale of such goods or services shall not give rise to any warranties, but, in the case of a sale to a state agency or political subdivision, if the quality of the goods or services is not approximately the same as that requested, the director shall refund the purchase price or replace the goods or services. In the case of a sale of surplus goods or services, no refund or replacement shall be made after ninety days from the date of the sale.
