Bill Summary
An act to amend Sections 14838.5 and 14838.64 of the Government Code, relating to public contracts.
AI Summary
This bill, amending the Small Business Procurement and Contract Act, proposes to increase the maximum estimated value of public contracts that state agencies and the California State University can award to certified small businesses, including microbusinesses and disabled veteran business enterprises, without requiring full competitive bidding, from $250,000 to $350,000. A microbusiness is a small business with fewer than 10 employees and annual gross revenues of less than $1 million. A disabled veteran business enterprise is a business owned and controlled by a disabled veteran. Furthermore, starting in 2029 and every two years thereafter, the Director of General Services will review this maximum value and may adjust it based on changes in the California Consumer Price Index, which measures inflation.
