Bill Summary
AN ACT RELATING TO PROCUREMENT; ENABLING USE OF A DESIGN AND BUILD PROJECT DELIVERY SYSTEM FOR CERTAIN DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION PROJECTS.
AI Summary
This bill amends the New Mexico Procurement Code to allow the Department of Transportation to use a "design and build" project delivery system for transportation projects with a maximum allowable construction cost of more than $50 million. The "design and build" approach allows the Department to hire a single contractor to both design and construct a project, which can streamline the project timeline and potentially reduce costs compared to the traditional approach of hiring separate contractors for design and construction. The bill's effective date is July 1, 2021.
