Bill > HB3413

This bill requires state agencies to provide more detailed information when submitting their annual budget requests, specifically focusing on their use of contractors. Agencies must now list all contractors, the amount of each contract, and the contract's status, including estimated completion times for incomplete or pending contracts. Additionally, agencies must specify whether a contract is for services or to increase staffing levels, report on any actions taken in response to recommendations from consultants they've hired, and publicly post the final consultant report on the state's purchasing website, linked to the original contract. These new reporting requirements are intended to increase transparency and accountability in how state funds are spent on external services.
