SimpliGov replace shared procurement emails

Description

replace DEPprocurment@dep.nj.gov and DEPprocurementforestry@dep.nj.gov with a single SimpliGov workflow. This needs to be very simple with perhaps P-card or other payment method drop down, comments and attachments. This would be collaborative stage heavy with minimal stages. This would mimic a drop-box with ability to route processing/review to multiple staff.

Project Justification

Procurement is a noted complex and lengthy process demanding shared but controlled/tracked access, preservation of the request history and long-term storage of final records for possible future audits. This project envisions a simple start that just replaces the current email to avoid losses and delay. It is expected that a workflow could be best refined after some use of the most basic tool.
