Title 61. Public Buildings and Public Works
§61-103.8. State agencies to identify headquarters location of contracting companies – Provide reasons for choosing companies not headquartered in Oklahoma.
When a state agency accepts any type of contract, whether bid or no-bid, it shall list the city, state and country in which the company that is seeking or awarded work is headquartered. If the company is an Oklahoma entity of which over fifty percent (50%) is owned by an out-of-state entity or individual, then, for the purposes of this section, the location of the company's headquarters shall be considered to be in the city, state and country of the majority owner. Any work the state awards that is not strictly awarded by the lowest price and that is awarded to a company not headquartered in Oklahoma shall require the awarding agency's director to provide reasons why the out-of-state company was chosen over an Oklahoma company.
