this chapter, the print vendor shall agree to permit the secretary of state to
conduct inspections, with or without prior notice, of each location where
ballots and other mailing materials are created, stored, printed, mailed, or
otherwise processed, and shall incorporate such permission into its contract
with the board of elections. The secretary of state shall require corrective
action as necessary to ensure compliance with the requirements of this
chapter.

The secretary of
state may revoke its approval at any time upon determining that a print vendor
is no longer capable of manufacturing or printing ballots.
(2)
If a print vendor
fails to comply with the requirements of this chapter, the secretary of state
shall provide notice of non-compliance and an opportunity to remedy the issue
within a reasonable amount of time specified by the secretary of state. The
secretary of state may revoke its approval if the print vendor does not remedy
the issue within that period.
(C)
Any contract
between a board of elections and a print vendor shall state the board's
requirements for the provision of vendor services and products. The contract
also shall outline penalties if the print vendor fails to fulfill the
