Bill > H10

This bill makes several amendments to Chapter 30B of the General Laws, which governs public procurement in Massachusetts, often referred to as the Uniform Procurement Law. Key changes include updating references to specific sections of Chapter 7 and Chapter 7C, which deal with state administration and regulatory oversight, and modifying the definition of a "Disadvantaged vendor" to align with definitions in Chapter 7C concerning minority and women-owned businesses. Additionally, the bill raises the threshold for certain procurement requirements from two thousand dollars to $10,000, and repeals Section 23 of Chapter 30B. These changes are part of recommendations from the Inspector General to improve the state's procurement processes.
