AI Summary

Specifically, it removes references to sections 44A to 44H of Chapter 149 of the General Laws, which deal with public bidding requirements, from the laws governing MassDOT. It also adds MassDOT to the list of authorities subject to the public bidding requirements in Chapter 149. Additionally, it expands the project types subject to the procurement rules in Chapter 149A to include building projects, and increases the threshold for certain construction manager-at-risk contracts from $8 million to $21 million.
