� 2.2-4304. Joint and cooperative procurement.

A. Any public body may participate in, sponsor, conduct, or

 one or more other public bodies, or public agencies or institutions or 
 localities of the several states, of the United States or its territories, the 
 District of Columbia, the U.S. General Services Administration, or the 
 Metropolitan Washington Council of Governments, for the purpose of combining 
 requirements to increase efficiency or reduce administrative expenses in any 
 acquisition of goods, services, or construction.

B. In addition, a public body may purchase from another public 
 body's contract or from the contract of the Metropolitan Washington Council of 
 Governments even if it did not participate in the request for proposal or 
 invitation to bid, if the request for proposal or invitation to bid specified 
 that the procurement was a cooperative procurement being conducted on behalf of 
 other public bodies, except for:

1. Contracts for architectural or engineering services; or

2. Construction projects exceeding 
 $200,000, except for the installation of artificial turf 
 and track surfaces, including all associated and necessary construction, which

 in this subdivision shall be construed to prohibit sole source or emergency procurements 
 awarded pursuant to subsections E and F of � 2.2-4303.

In instances where any authority, department, agency, or 
 institution of the Commonwealth desires to purchase information technology and 
 telecommunications goods and services from another public body's contract and
