This bill died with 2015-2016 Regular Session. It reached “In Committee” and never advanced before the session ended, so it can no longer move — a new version would have to be reintroduced in the current session.

This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there is no live prognosis. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

Summary

Existing law authorizes the Department of Transportation to contract for the services of engineers, architects, surveyors, planners, environmental specialists, and materials testing specialists to provide professional and technical services relating to project study reports, project development, surveying, and construction inspection whenever the director determines that specified guidelines are applicable and that the services contracted for shall not cause the displacement of any permanent, temporary, or part-time employee of the department. This bill would require the department to conduct a study to assess the implementation of the Lean 6-SIGMA program as provided through the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development and the Government Operations Agency to determine the effectiveness of streamlining the application process for private architectural and engineering firms seeking to provide professional and technical project development services to the department.
