Bill > HB2420

This bill increases the monetary limits for contracts awarded through a "small works roster," which is a process used by state agencies and authorized local governments to award contracts for construction, renovation, and repair projects without requiring a full competitive bidding process. Specifically, the bill gradually raises the maximum contract value that can be awarded using this simplified process, starting at $350,000 or less until the end of 2026, and then increasing incrementally to $650,000 or less by July 1, 2030. The bill also clarifies that these limits do not include sales tax and provides provisions for direct contracting with small businesses for projects under $150,000 to encourage their utilization, while also emphasizing the need to rotate contracts and notify diverse businesses.
