What’s in it

This bill concerns state purchasing requirements relating to targeted small business procurement goals. The bill provides that any state agency, with approval by the department of administrative services, may purchase directly from a vendor if the direct purchasing would contribute to the agency complying with the targeted small business procurement goals and will not exceed an amount, not to exceed $25,000, determined by the department by rule. Current law allows the direct purchase to comply with targeted small business procurement goals if the amount does not exceed $10,000.

Changed since by amendments H-1020, H-1012; see Amendments.
