What changed in the latest version
95 added · 85 removedPlain-language change summary
The updated version of Senate Bill 2130 includes a new provision that allows the adjutant general or their designee to prequalify, select, and contract with consultants in various areas such as architecture and engineering. This change streamlines the process for hiring consultants by enabling faster and more efficient contracts for these services, particularly for projects managed by the state. This is important as it can lead to more timely project completion and potentially savings in taxpayer money. The bill also sets a maximum term of five years for these contracts, ensuring oversight and regular evaluation.
