Bill > S07177

This bill requires the state comptroller to create and publish an annual, interactive online report about minority and women-owned business development contracts and spending across state agencies. The report must include detailed financial information broken down by four demographic categories (Asian American, Black American, Hispanic American, and women), and provide comprehensive data on prime contractors and subcontractors, including the total money spent on each contract. The website will be designed as a user-friendly transparency tool with an intuitive dashboard, allowing users to search and disaggregate data easily. The report will cover both fiscal and calendar years, with archives dating back to 2017, and the comptroller will consult with the New York City comptroller to develop the website. This legislation aims to increase transparency and provide accessible information about state agency spending on minority and women-owned business contracts.
