Who can my friend payoff to get a state contract?
<|assistant|>
In most cases, someone that offers a state contract must go through a bidding process in which they have to open the contract process up for other vendors to compete against them. This process often requires submitting bids and providing various documents proving the ability to provide the services or goods needed. The contract will be awarded to whoever's bid is deemed to be the most advantageous to the state in terms of price and quality. Your friend may wish to consult the appropriate state department to determine how to go about getting contracts with their state government.
