SC.GOV's master agreement with the state allows state and local government entities to utilize the services offered by SC.GOV without having to go through the formal procurement process.

SC.GOV operates under an innovative self-funded model and is not supported by appropriated funds. Applications are built at no cost to governmental entities. Revenue to support SC.GOV comes primarily from nominal transaction fees associated with some of the online services we create, host, and maintain. These enhanced access fees are used to fund the development of additional online eGovernment services.

The master agreement with the State of South Carolina establishes an eGovernment Oversight Committee that helps to set policies and overall priorities, approve projects and services, authorize access fees, and ensure that the portal utilizes funds in the best interests of the State.
