Bill > S08405

This bill extends the effectiveness of existing provisions related to joint bidding on public work projects. Specifically, the bill amends a previous law from 2014 by changing the expiration date of the joint bidding provisions from December 31, 2025 to December 31, 2026. Joint bidding typically allows multiple contractors or companies to combine their resources and submit a collaborative bid for public construction or infrastructure projects, which can help smaller businesses compete for larger contracts. By extending the law's effectiveness for an additional year, the bill ensures that these joint bidding provisions remain in place, giving public entities and contractors continued flexibility in how they approach public work project contracts. The bill takes effect immediately upon passage, which means the new expiration date of December 31, 2026 is now in effect.
