Bill > H3238

This bill aims to amend Chapter 7 of the General Laws by inserting a new section, Section 22P, which requires any state department, office, commission, institution, authority, or regional authority contracting for cleaning, maintenance, or security guard services to follow the requirements set forth in Section 27H of Chapter 149 and any related rules. The bill also mandates that any procurement bid or offer that does not comply with these requirements is considered non-responsive, and any contract entered into that is not in compliance with this new section and Section 27H of Chapter 149 shall be void. Additionally, the bill requires that any solicitation for these services include a statement of required hours, a worksheet for the breakdown of the cost components of the hourly proposed rate, and a provision for annual adjustments to the contract price to reflect increases in wage and benefits requirements.
