  to read as follows:
         (c)  Before a state agency may contract with a third party
  for Internet application development that duplicates a state
  electronic Internet portal function, including a function of a
  native mobile application, the state agency must notify the
  department of its intent to bid for such services at the same time

  that purpose.
