Government Code section 14131.1

The department, in applying the criteria for contracting for services established pursuant to this article, shall consider the workload relating to project study reports, project development, surveying, and construction inspection based on the total program relating to those factors for each fiscal year. In determining the appropriateness of contracting, the provisions of this article and the guidelines adopted pursuant to this article may be applied to the total program relating to project study reports, project development, surveying, and construction inspection for the fiscal year. Application of the provisions of this article and the guidelines to each individual contract for services is not required.
Once the department applies the provisions of this article and the guidelines to the total project development program for the fiscal year and determines the total personnel years allocated for contracting out for the fiscal year, there shall be no further requirement to identify or refer to specific facts or guidelines which justify contracting out regarding individual contracts.
