Furthermore, the Commission agreed with TURN and others that statewide administrators should have the discretion to determine whether to contract with a single statewide implementer, who might in turn hire subcontractors, or to contract directly with multiple implementers offering local or regional specialties or expertise in the market(s) to be targeted.
